EQ-i 2.0

Someone with a high IQ can feel they are not happy in life, while others with a lower IQ are happy. That difference has to do with a person's emotional intelligence, the EQ. Scientific research shows that a high EQ offers a greater chance of a successful life than a high IQ.

  • Why being smart does not yet mean good leadership
  • A more highly developed EQ is more important than a high IQ
  • Effective leadership is based on developed social and emotional skills
  • Every day we are (unconsciously) interpreting feelings and emotions. We become happy when talking to someone we find likeable, or angry when someone does something other than what we expect. Emotional intelligence can be developed, so that we consciously understand ourselves and others.

The EQ-i was the first test to measure emotional intelligence and is still regarded as the most reliable.

Interpersonal Profile (IPP) Leary's Rose

Dr Timothy Leary was a psychologist known for his work with and under the influence of LSD. His legendary interaction model, the Leary's Rose, is known among managers, trainers, coaches and students alike.

A century later it is still widely used. He examined, very aptly, the different communication styles that we all (can) use. Which do you tend to show, which not? The Art of People was one of the first in the Netherlands (pilot masterclass Leary Academy) to hold a licence for the validated Interpersonal Profile (IPP®). A clear overview of the eight communication styles, with a vector as an additional indication of the preferred style. For the price of one, three (or more) people can be added to create a 360°. The Art of People works with a rug specially developed by the Leary Academy, so that you can physically walk through the model. You get the best results with a training actor.

The Art of People works with Kapok, a national agency specialised in deploying top actors and familiar with organisational and communication questions.

‘‘If you’re a leader and you want to mobilize your team, one of the first things you can do... is listen to them. Empathy is a critical skill to begin with for leaders because by listening to people and understanding where they’re coming from, you’ll have a better handle on how to motivate those people and what’s important to hem... That’s the first step in your ability to influence people, and influencing people is a critical skill for leaders’.Dr Steven Stein, CEO MHS
