Emotional Intelligence Is Critical For Development-Focused Coaching

 Emotional Intelligence Coaching should begin with a valid assessment that provides a baseline of the coaching clients EI skills in a wide range of competencies such as self-awareness, self-control, social awareness, relationship management, empathy, stress tolerance  as well as self-regard and social responsibility.

Specific exercises and strategies for skill enhancement in these scales are included in the EQ-i-2.0 Pre Assessment. A client workbook and ancillary training or coaching material is used for a step -by -step approach to increase scales in which the client scores in the low or middle range.

Clients are assisted in the first coaching session following the assessment be-briefing to select the scales along with time lines that he or she would like to prioritize in the First Phase of the coaching (12 sessions).

Following the remaining sessions, the client completes the Post EQ- 2.0 Assessment and determines the appropriate self-help strategies needed for continued development.
