All of our training programs are facilitated using engaging presentations of key concepts, a variety of group and individual exercises, discussions and case studies. These exercises help to motivate, illustrate key learning points, demonstrate important skills and 'drill down' to the drivers of our behavior.


Support and Reinforcement of Learning

The quality of a learning program means nothing, if individuals are not held accountable for practicing the skills they learned when they get back on the job. This is critical to ensure that new pathways will develop and the improved behaviors and performance that result from these pathways. When individuals and organizations start to see significant new skills displayed on the job, this is when learning becomes exciting – and contagious!

EI360™ Feedback Report:

This report summarizes the key multi-rater assessment data from up to 15 coworkers (manager, peer, direct report, key client, family members and others). In order for the EI360 to be a tool to effect change it is important that this is delivered as part of a program or one on one coaching.

The EI360 allows individuals to:
* Gauge their level of emotional intelligence;
* Compare their self-perception with that of others;
* Better understand how their behavior affects performance;
* And, Alert them to potential derailers of their success.

One-on-One EQ Coaching

The most powerful form of coaching is at the individual level. IHHP’s one on one EQ Coaching consists of three to six one-on-one telephone sessions. These sessions are designed to provide support and accountability to each person in reaching the personal development goals they committed to in the training program. This Combined with IHHP’s powerful Emotional Intelligence training programs and the EI360 feedback tool, EQ Coaching will bring the support, focus and accountability individuals need for personal and professional growth.

Specifically, an EQ Coach will help you to:
* Make a commitment to your own personal development;
* Understand the greater purpose of your life and work;
* Define and hold you accountable to personal goals;
* Increase your ability to handle adversity and setbacks;
* Manage your emotions when tension, change and uncertainty hits;
* Improve your ability to connect and form strong relationships;
* Coach others to improve their EQ – including your children!
* Enable you to stay on track by remembering your purpose and vision.

Extended Learning Sessions

Our Extended Learning Sessions (ELS) are an impactful cost effective way to keep people inspired and engaged in the learning process. These sessions allow an unlimited number of participants who have gone through a training program to attend presentations conducted over the web and telephone, which will reinforce, support and encourage their continued personal development.

The ELS Series consists of two one-hour sessions spread two to four weeks apart after the training. They consist of a short review of key concepts taught in the training, approaches and ideas for implementing those strategies, and presentation of new advanced techniques. In depth Q & A and a focus on application at work (and at home) are used to further develop leadership abilities. The structure of the calls follows the Emotional Intelligence model:
* Session 1: Self-Awareness & Emotional Management – understand the emotions driving our behaviors, and identifying our unique triggers and default behaviors. Practice self-management techniques to stay calm when there is tension and conflict.
* Session 2: Emotional Connection and Personal Leadership – use EQ coaching techniques to inspire and engage others. Commit to taking action and ongoing personal development.

The Extended Learning sessions are most powerful when combined with the Playing Big interactive eLearning program, which is used to reinforce and deepen learning in between sessions.

Re: your personality type? - Hi Michelle! If you are the present-moment focused, this is your result. If it doesn't seem spot on, I'll give you the big-picture focused result. The Enjoyer of Life. You enthusiastically enjoy experiencing the five senses, creative pursuits and social harmony in the here-and-now. You are independent, socially upbeat, and enjoy creating a positive and happy atmosphere. Despite your outgoing “persona,” you are a private person and few people truly know you well). #1 Strength: Comfort Creator #2 Strength: Expressing Social Feeling 1) Comfort Creator -- Creating a comfortable physical environment. Feels the ?ve senses vividly. Adept at using objects, or ?nding or building objects, to make a physical space the most soothing to all ?ve senses. Also organizing so objects are easily found in a convenient way. Both the physical comfort of self, and others, is important. Often feel a need to ensure those close to them are warm enough, fed, rested, etc. Will easily offer help to others in these areas, lending a jacket, or offering a snack. 2) Expressing Social Feeling Setting an emotional tone, vibrant, energetic, or serious, etc. Concerned with the emotional environment as it?s happening -- the vibe of people at a party, the tone of a situation, other people?s responses. Setting the tone -- dramatic and serious, or lighthearted and a celebration. Emotional displays are important for knowing how others are feeling, whether bad or good. Someone talking in a monotone about feelings seems insincere. Feels should be shown, so they can be read by others. Your best type would be: The Conceptualizer. You are an inventive creator of logical systems of possibilities that you use to create processes, products or strategies. Socially, you are sometimes quiet, but also find yourself acting as the life of the party, especially when you get caught up in a debate or entertaining topic of conversation. #1 Strength: Generating Future Possibilities #2 Strength: Systematic/Rule Logic
Any experience with McManus UK Ltd.? - Did anybody already deal with any of the McManus UK Ltd offshore entities? I do have a program, but not enough cash. I have been advised that they can fund investors with access to Private Placement Programs but they don’t want to joint venture with me. They want a fee for the service. This is why I want to find out if anybody has had first hand experience with this group? Patrick Ohara, Financial Consultant
Budget. - I believe the biggest barrier is related to budget. Training tends to be a normal practice for a big company. But I have to consider it seriously as an entrepreneur.
Re: your personality type? - Hi Zac, If you're on the fence about 2 and 3, I'd think more about them. Big picture people tend to be oblivious to the detail of what is happening NOW -- the colors on a restaurant wall, the layout of someone's apartment, the color of people's shirts at a party, etc. They instead notice the "theme" -- an upscale restaurant (who knows what color), casual shirts at a party (not sure what style), etc. A "trendy" apartment, but who knows where the bathroom was. Gut feeling people tend to act w/o all the facts, and are comfortable following that instinct. "Thinker" people will choose something even if they HATE it, just because it "makes sense." Where as that makes no sense to a gut person. Thinkers are more "black and white" where as gut instinct feelers are more "gray area" people. But going with your selections... 1. Within 2. Big Picture 3. Gut Feeling 4. Spontaneous The Reflective Seeker of Truth. You are a passionate searcher of big-picture meaning and strive to help others with your empathetic listening skills. Socially, you are usually quiet, but can be a social butterfly when you feel like it, though it can be draining to do so for too long. You have a very silly and goofy side, enjoy people and need time to quietly reflect #1 Strength: Predicting Future Likelihoods #2 Strength: Expressing Social Feeling Predicting Future Likelihoods Predicting what is likely to happen, based on past events, themes, or what has historically been true. Deciding what will happen, based on past events. These predictions are usually spoken with con?dence and certainty. A thread or common idea is drawn from the past, and these ideas are used to decide what will happen in the future. Authorities and past situations are extremely important for deciding what will happen in the future. Expressing Social Feeling Setting an emotional tone, vibrant, energetic, or serious, etc. Concerned with the emotional environment as it?s happening -- the vibe of people at a party, the tone of a situation, other people?s responses. Setting the tone -- dramatic and serious, or lighthearted and a celebration. Emotional displays are important for knowing how others are feeling, whether bad or good. Someone talking in a monotone about feelings seems insincere. Feels should be shown, so they can be read by others. If that is your type, your #1 match would be... The Strong-Willed Go-Getter. You are a bold sculptor of the here-and-now in order to achieve immediate results following a logical system for making decisions. You add a fun, upbeat vibe to social events and are often the most gregarious person in the room. #1 Strength: Commander of Physical Space #2 Strength: Systematic/Rule Logic
