EQ-I 2.0 CERTIFICATION COURSE
plug in and electrify your clients’ emotional intelligence

banner
demo-clip-rhomboid

Powering up your clients’ emotional intelligence can be, in a word: shocking.

Careful! Don’t put your fingers near the outlet.

This EQ stuff unleashes potential that’s been unknowingly quashed (self-sabotage anyone?).
It uncovers the massive obstacles (and the tiny, Legos-hidden-in-the carpet stumbling blocks) to growth.
And, like the dramatic unmasking of the ghost in every Scooby Doo episode ever, after you get it, you’ve got it, you know?
…And you think… ‘how did I not see Old Man Inner Self’ at work all along?!
it makes so much sense.

OK…now that you’ve pictured yourself in the Mystery Machine with Fred and Velma…
Imagine shining that oh-so-handy flashlight into the hidden corners of your clients’ potential.
Shine that light, dammit! It’ll be earth-rattling. Why?

Because they can’t Play to Win until they see how emotions affect their behavior, each other, and their results.

EQ is all about dealing with how well we perceive and express ourselves. It’s about how we deal with whatever gets thrown our way, and what we do with emotional data (oooh, we said ‘data’ – sounds sciency). That’s right. Playing to Win means getting uncomfortably comfortable with emotions, and the real data they represent.

Today’s reality: EQ rivals (and wins) against IQ (and years of hard skills training) when it comes to recruitment and retention in leading organizations.

Leaders and organizations are looking for any edge (duh!). So, developing EQ provides an infinite edge (you can up your EQ – not your IQ) when it comes to pulling together a capable (err – how bout uber-dynamic?), well-rounded team.

    a powerful experience

    Jenn and Karen bring Emotional Intelligence to life in a fresh new way that is easy for leaders and clients to understand and embrace. The EQi 2.0 certification was a powerful experience that gave me the knowledge and tools I needed to create workshops and work with individuals on their emotional intelligence. Being a strong, impactful leader requires a high level of Emotional Intelligence and because I am certified I have the ability to laser in and identify what will be their biggest game-changer when leading themselves, leading others, and leading the business. EQi is large and in charge these days!
