emotional intelligence & high performance

Knowing oneself is critical to human performance, and becomes amplified when others are involved, at home or at work in the leadership arena.


Building self-awareness around your emotion data, and understanding your motivational drivers enable you to unlock potential in yourself and your teams.


Leaders must find equilibrium amid constant change and be capable of making crucial decisions affecting people and processes in order to perform at the highest levels. 


Effective leaders must also be attuned to their leadership competencies before acting on them.


There’s reason to suggest that self-aware leaders directly correlate to highly-engaged employees and healthier companies that outperform the competition. Presence moves people.


According to an analysis by Korn/Ferry International, companies with higher rates of financial return tend to employ professionals with high degrees of self-awareness. 


Relatedly, research by the Association for Talent Development shows that self-aware leaders report having:

  • Greater effectiveness in the workplace
  • Better relationships with colleagues
  • Improved abilities to identify and leverage their emotions
  • Reduced stress


The key question for every leader: how do you show up? 


Your presence is how people experience you. How do your leaders, peers, and reports feel in your presence? What is the emotional wake remaining when you've left the room? How does this fluctuate based upon the suite of emotions you're experiencing?


When work and life are not unfolding to plan, how do you ensure you're meeting the "moment of truth" with grounded confidence in landing the desired impact to accomplish your goals? Are you leading by design, or default?


This is what the EQ-i 2.0 was built for. It's what makes EQ coaching unparalleled in effectiveness. 


Beliefs are the seeds of growth. Awareness creates synergy. Emotional intelligence elevates your game. 

MHS EQ-i 2.0®

WHY IS EI IMPORTANT?

While emotional intelligence isn’t the sole predictor of human performance and development potential, it is proven to be a leading indicator in these areas. Emotional intelligence is also not a static factor — to the contrary, your emotional intelligence changes over time and can be developed through awareness and practice.


LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE

The EQ-i 2.0 measures the interaction between you, and the systems and environments you operate in. Assessing and evaluating your emotional intelligence can help pinpoint areas of focus for development.


The EQ-i 2.0 skills are strongly related to leadership competencies that correlate with high performance across productivity, influence, employee engagement, ingenuity, and efficiency. 


The EQ-i 2.0 model uses four common leadership dimensions inherent to most models of leadership: Authenticity, Coaching, Insight, and Innovation.


A valid, reliable instrument, the human performance potential identified by the EQ-i 2.0, also available in group and 360 formats, delivered with 1:1 coaching to targeted strategies, make it the most globally-recognized, administered, and widely researched emotional intelligence model in the world.
