How well do you know yourself? How well do you express yourself to others? What do you do under stressful circumstances? At the core of these answers is your emotional intelligence (EQ). The good news is that it’s not a fixed characteristic. The EQ-i 2.0 is a behavioral assessment that stresses you have the ability to adapt and change. Unlike general intelligence (IQ) and personality which are thought to be mostly fixed, the EQ-i 2.0 is the only valid emotional intelligence test that also assesses decision-making and stress tolerance. This workshop is designed to help participants gain insights from their assessment results and walk away with practical tools for improvement.
