Work is changing and the skills considered necessary to be successful at work are changing as well. In our globalized, highly technical economy, we’ll need technical experts to build the future, but we’ll also need those people to grasp the whys and hows of human behavior. Making things is easy, but understanding what people want is hard. At Strategy of Mind, we build the Human Quotient (HQ), a comprehensive, evidence-based approach that is defined as being more proactive and less reactive in three key areas of human experience and performance. In simple terms, we help individuals and organizations build their future. In this program, participants will spend their time engaged in a carefully structured HQ dialogue that is uniquely designed by our team of experts to foster active inquiry, careful listening, and creative thinking about alternative approaches to problems and challenges. By developing these critical qualitative skills, individuals and organizations alike will flourish and innovate for success.

Participants will learn to:

  • Elevate the level of trust and collaboration amongst colleagues and clients
  • Manage stressful experience with greater resilience and strength
  • Deepen self-awareness, mental focus, and creative collaborative thinking
  • Address divers, often unfamiliar, challenges
  • Better judge and assess complex scenarios
