:: EQ & Leadership Coaching

Leaders with EQ leadership competencies outperformed their targets by 15 to 20 percent... those who lacked EQ competencies, under-performed by almost 20%. [McClelland].

Are you a top performer?

Competency research in over 200 organisations suggests that one-third of the difference in strong performance outcomes is due to technical skills and cognitive ability while two thirds is due to emotional intelligence.

In top leadership positions, over 85% of the difference in top performing and high achieving leaders was directly related to their level of emotional competence.

Consider these facts:

A study of 130 executives found that how well people handled their own emotions determined how much people hire them and want to work with, or for them.

	Companies are increasingly listing emotional competencies as 'must have' criteria in their job advertisements and descriptions. [National US Department of Labour Hire]
	MBA qualifications AND emotional intelligence are what more and more companies are seeking in their candidates. [Graduate Management Admissions Council Survey]
	Emotional competencies were the best differentiators between star performers and typical performers. [Daniel Goleman's analysis of 181 jobs acriss 121 organisations].
	The most common traits in leaders who derail their careers and their team are poor relationships and ineffective leadership skills. [Centre for Creative Leadership study].
	Teams who derailed were found to have high levels of technical and functional expertise, however were independent achievers, arrogant, and had a disdain for teamwork. [Egon Zehnder study].
