The Two EQs

Emotional intelligence has two sides. We build both.

Personal

Character EQ

The Life Languages™ system reveals what you need from others, the filter you process the world through, and your core strengths — building the self-awareness at the heart of your EQ.

  • Assess your seven Life Languages™ and their order of fluency and how to recognize and react to them in others
  • Understand the four keys that will unlock any Life Language so you can see why you, and others, do what you do
  • See how you can prevent predictable distress patterns and reduce stress
Business

Engagement EQ

Engagement EQ is the skill of communicating so people truly understand — developing a relatable mindset and meaningful conversation that drives connection.

  • Understand the three realities you must face to become a brilliant leader
  • Learn the five conversations that will change the way that you engage and drive buy-in and accountability
  • See how your six responsibilities as a leader impact your management and decision-making style
