“We find that most of the characteristics that differentiate the outstanding performers are these things that we call social and emotional competencies."
Richard Boyatzis, 2008.

It’s well understood that emotional intelligence (EI), or social intelligence – the ability to bring out the best in ourselves and others – is a crucial part of a leader’s repertoire. And our work with organizations shows that EI can make the difference between a highly effective and an average professional contributor. The good news is that EI can be developed. Through our long-standing partnership with EI pioneers Dr. Daniel Goleman and Dr. Richard Boyatzis, we offer an emotional intelligence test as well as other tools and resources that help individuals to assess their emotional quotient. We then assist in developing emotional intelligence so it can be translated into personal effectiveness and competitive advantage for their organization.
