Understand your results and where to focus next.

Your guide puts your scenario stages alongside your self-assessment, with a separate module explaining the gap between them. It also includes evidence-based tools for your two highest-priority development areas.

What goes into your guide

Based on 66 assessment items in two parts.

Three scenario sections in the EQ at Work Assessment test how you recognize emotions, manage your own reactions, and respond to other people's strong emotions. A fourth records how you see yourself and is scored separately, allowing the guide to compare the two.

Reading emotionsSixteen situations with keyed answers. Identify the emotion suggested by the circumstances in each one.
Steadying yourselfScenario questions with ranked answers about managing your own strong emotions, dread, and discouragement.
Handling the momentScenario questions with ranked answers covering a teammate in tears, a heated meeting, hard news, and an angry stakeholder.
How you see yourselfEighteen self-assessment statements, reported separately so you can compare how you see yourself with your scenario results.
Sample situation“A blunt, critical email from your manager arrives mid-morning. You feel yourself getting upset, and you have a meeting in ten minutes.”
Sample situation“A teammate begins crying at their desk after a harsh feedback session, and other people are starting to notice.”

Fit

Is this the right fit for your work?

A good fit

  • You want a development plan based on your EQ at Work results.
  • You have completed the free EQ at Work Assessment or plan to take it before purchasing.
  • You want a written plan based on your assessment result, delivered as a PDF.

When to consider another option

  • You want editable templates or a workbook rather than one finished PDF.
  • You want one guide for the whole team rather than individual guides built from each person's result.
  • You would rather talk through your assessment result than receive a written plan. See the Results Debrief.
