This is how the work gets done.

One program. Six steps. Built on one diagnostic.

The EQ Leadership Program runs over six months. Step 1 is the foundation: each participant completes a scientifically validated emotional intelligence diagnostic across ten capabilities.

Every step after it draws on those results, so development targets what each person needs.
