How our Process works
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) has been proven as a learnable skill that improves relationships, productivity, career development and business impact.

Baseline Assessment

The EvolvEQ process starts with the completion of an online baseline assessment which generates an EQ profile. 

The assessment comprises 150 rating questions that takes about 20 minutes to complete.

Training

After receiving the assessment, participants take part in either a one or two-day training programme that aims to achieve the following:

  • Provide an introduction/ overview to EQ and why it is important to personal and professional development and success;
  • Show how EQ is a learnable skill;
  • Help participants understand their EQ profile; and
  • Assist participants with developing a personal development plan.

Coaching

Following the training, participants work at implementing their individual development plan (the ‘Evolution Solution’) to improve the areas needing attention.  This is done in a variety of ways:

  • Scheduled coaching sessions using the EvolvEQ Toolkit;
  • Additional focussed training sessions;
  • Working with colleagues;
  • Self-study and research; and
  • Practise, practise, practise!

Exit Assessment

After 60 – 90 days, participants complete the assessment again to see if they have improved in the priority areas identified.

The overall process is summarised in the below:

“Emotional intelligence is the ability to sense, understand, and effectively apply the power and acumen of emotions 
as a source of human energy, information, connection, and influence”
