EQ Testing Case Study
Andrew is a typical manager who fundraises for a charity. “He gives wonderfully engaging presentations to (potential) clients. He is passionate, driven & committed…; an outspoken character who cares about his organisation. However, he can react too quickly or sharply, is frequently loud and doesn’t listen well. He can be overpowering without considering his effect on others.
Andrew, Fundraiser UK Company
“EQ works has honed my strengths and provided powerful and creative perspectives and approaches to enhance my effectiveness in areas of natural weakness.”
EQ-i Testing Results
Our testing and analysis can seem complex but we decode it simply and powerfully for our clients. A sample of Andrew’s pre-coaching scores below gives a sense of the insights, issues and potential that are uncovered. Scoring 100 is the average EQ sub-scale score for people as a whole. Roughly 1 in 6 people score above 115 or below 85 for any sub-scale, indicating the kind of range for high and low scoring EQ scores.
- Self-Regard 76.6%
- Self-Actualization 80.3%
- Emotional Self-Awareness 70%
- Emotional Expression Composite 77,3%
- Emotional Expression 74%
- Assertiveness 90,3%
- Independence 74,6%
- Optimism 82%
The scores above indicate a strongly expressive, assertive person with a strong positive outlook, someone with strong extroversion & drives.
Sample EQ scores
- Interpersonal Relationships 69,3%
- Empathy 59,3%
- Impulse Control 58,6%
The three scores immediately above reflect empathy lower than most other scores. This means they miss important cues or lack feeling for others. With the lower impulse control, this means they struggle to temper their drives and may overwhelm others easily. As such their relationship skills are a key focus for them.
Solution
Andrew benefited hugely from understanding he needed to re-balance his EQ. By building his receptive nature, focussing on what other's need and uncovering the benefits of calming, slowing and listening, he was able to improve. He realised what he'd been missing out on especially his undesirable effects on others. He learnt to utilise his strengths more for empowering relationships and communication to engage people more effectively.
