Assessment Tools

The 1-5-15 factor structure of the EQ-i 2.0® features one overarching EI score (Total EI), broken down into five composite scores which, in turn, are broken down into a total of 15 subscales.

The Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0®) is the first scientifically validated and most widely used Emotional Intelligence assessment in the world. Based on more than 20 years of research worldwide, the EQ-i 2.0® examines an individual’s social and emotional strengths and weaknesses. Respondents self-report on their life and workplace performance in 15 key areas of emotional skill that have been proven to contribute to proficiency in complex business activities such as conflict resolution and planning. By identifying the areas that need improvement, the client can immediately begin developing those areas. At the same time, areas where the client excels can be leveraged to their full potential to maximize effectiveness in daily tasks.

Why the EQ-i 2.0®?

The EQ-i 2.0® measures emotional intelligence (EI) and how it can impact people and the workplace. Applications of emotional intelligence include:

  • Leadership Development
  • Selection
  • Organizational Development
  • Executive Coaching
  • Team Building
  • Student Development

The Major Benefits

With the EQ-I 2.0®, what was once considered that intangible determinant of success beyond IQ, beyond experience, beyond personality can today be accurately measured. As a result, unprecedented predictability is now achievable in such key HR areas as hiring, promotion, alignment, and succession planning. And since Emotional Intelligence is much more elastic than IQ, improving individual performance by sharpening Emotional Intelligence skills has never been more within reach. The benefits of the EQ-I 2.0® are clear.

The VIA PRO – Learn What’s Best About You

Knowing our personal character strengths –– what’s best about us as human beings –- is powerful knowledge. It lets us understand and nurture what’s right with us versus our faults. This idea is the essence of positive psychology.

Our signature (top) strengths are unique to each of us and powerfully affect our decisions, preferences and actions in life. Know it or not, we all live by our signature strengths. Intentionally expressing signature strengths in our close relationships, work, and communities can be deeply satisfying. It is: “living out loud.”

The VIA PRO Character Strengths Report was developed to scientifically measure a person’s character strengths. It provides a closer look at a person’s character strengths through the use of 5 Graphs, description of key research around certain character strengths, ways to explore strengths, a description of the overuse and underuse of highest strengths, and a description of the most recent interventions for building each of the 24 strengths of character.
The VIA PRO emerged from a panel of leading experts in the world of strengths; their comments, suggestions, and judgments have been invaluable.

Who is the VIA PRO for?

It is for anybody that wishes to take a deeper dive into their own character strengths, while learning about what the latest science has to say. Psychologists and coaches use it with clients, business consultants and executive coaches with leadership groups, managers/supervisors with employees, and professors/ teachers with students.
