Have you ever wondered why some very smart people are lonely, unhappy, and unsuccessful? Do you remember anyone from your childhood who wasn’t that smart, but was outgoing, confident, had a positive attitude, and later in life became very successful? We used to think that IQ can predict how well one will do in life. But you know from your own experience that often high IQ is just not enough. What is this “other intelligence” that is so much more important for succeeding in the 21st century? It is called Emotional Intelligence.

BarOn EQ-i 2.0 is the first scientific measure of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence refers to the emotional, personal, social and coping dimensions of life.

The BarOn EQ-i 2.0 meaures one’s ability to deal with daily environmental demands and helps predict one’s success in life, including professional and personal pursuits.  It can help identify skills in people management and leadership capability.

Research shows a strong relationship between emotional intelligence and job performance.  Measuring emotional intelligence in the workplace is the first step toward improving it.  Emotional skills can be enhanced through training, making the BarOn EQ-i 2.0a valuable instrument for identifying potential areas for improvement and measuring effectiveness of organisational development programs.

BarOn EQ-i 2.0 highlights an individual’s emotional and social strengths and weaknesses.  Once the areas that need improvement have been identified, clients can immediately begin exploring and developing those areas.  At the same time, areas where the individual excels can be used to their full potential to maximise effectiveness in daily tasks.  High functioning individuals create a strong, competent team and a dynamic organisation.

The BarOn EQ-i 2.0 is the ideal tool to use in training and development initiatives, team building and in personal developement.
