Build Stronger Teams Using Positive Intelligence™

What PQ™ Training Looks Like For Your Team

It all starts with a Consultation Call where we learn about what's keeping your team stuck & create a roadmap for change.
Workshops & Speaking
Workshops & Off-Sites to introduce teams to the PQ™ framework, including individual Saboteur Assessments & customized programming and interactive sessions.

PQ Bootcamp
Ideally, we start with a core team of 5-10 leaders and influencers complete MindMastery Bootcamp with Kelly.

This training includes weekly coaching calls, a state-of-the-art interactive app, and practical exercises to build mental muscles.

The 7-week Bootcamp program provides foundational tools for building a new mental operating system. You'll learn about the Judge and Saboteurs, and how to maximize positive impact with Sage responses.
Once the core team is familiar with PQ and has seen its benefits, we'll develop a plan for rolling it out to the rest of your teams.

PQ increases your ROI because it delivers transformation. With all business/team PQ packages, you'll also receive:

  • An optional 3-hour virtual or in-person* PQ Intro workshop for your full team

  • Bootcamp for each registered employee

  • One year of app access & technical support from the PQ team

  • A yearlong training plan to help the team find continued support

  • PQ app access for family members of employees, so they can build a common language and get support in and out of the office

*Additional travel fees may be required for in-person workshops

Improving EQ with PQ™

It is within reach to improve EQ on your teams.

The relative strength of your positive mental muscles versus your negative mental muscles is called PQ™(Positivity Quotient). Raising PQ automatically develops 17 of the 18 emotional intelligence (EQ) competencies.

On average, teams see significant improvements in core emotional intelligence competencies in just six weeks.

87% saw an increase in relationship management (conflict, inspirational leadership, change, developing others)

87% developed stronger Self- Awareness (self-confidence, emotional self-awareness, accurate self-assessment)

87% improved their Self-Management (Initiative, transparency, adaptability, optimism, emotional self-control)

PQ™ Impact on Teams

PQ™ has been used by top companies like P&G, Pinterest, Microsoft, Nestle, Google, Lily, and Stanford University
