EI deemed a key skill by the World Economic Forum

Bay Area Executive Coach is pleased to now offer the suite of emotional intelligence (EI) assessments from Genos International. Emotional intelligence was noted as a key skill needed for professional success in the next decade aka the 4th industrial revolution by the World Economic Forum.

EI revolves around one’s ability to recognize and manage emotions. Beyond that is the ability to recognize and guide the emotions of others. This is an incredibly important skill for professionals at all levels of an organization. It is said that people don’t leave jobs, but bad managers. What constitutes a bad manager? For one thing, a lack of emotional intelligence.

Starting now, companies can turn to Bay Area Executive Coach to tap into the valuable and informative assessments provided by Genos International, a world leader in EI assessments.

Their internationally recognized Emotional Intelligence Assessments have been designed specifically for workplace applications by PhD-level psychometricians. Used by fortune-500 companies every day, all Genos assessments:

  • Exceed all standards for psychometric reliability and validity,
  • Are internationally recognized and supported by a wealth of peer-reviewed published research,
  • Are accompanied by beautiful reports that present results in an accessible fashion with tailored development aids to facilitate development and growth.

Emotional intelligence assessments can be used in each of these situations:

  • Assessing a manager in a 360 fashion

  • Assessing a candidate seeking employment
