The program is driven by the Six Seconds model of EQ-in-Action that includes three important pursuits:Know Yourself: Clearly seeing what you feel and do. Emotions are data, and these competencies allow you to accurately collect that information.Choose Yourself: Doing what you mean to do. Instead of reacting "on autopilot," these competencies allow you to proactively respond.Give Yourself: Doing it for a reason. These competencies help you put your vision and mission into action so you lead on purpose and with full integrity. The facilitator's guide includes a code for one EQ self-assessment, a companion website for additional resources, a hands-on tool to practice EQ entitled Think, Feel, and Act (TFA) cards, and a suggested Six Seconds training and certification model designed to enhance facilitation skills and implementation of this curriculum.
