Executive- and Leader development
Our unique EQ-based programs help leaders and teams by strengthening their ability to build strong relationships, make well-grounded decisions, manage stress, and develop their self-awareness. We go deep, we base our methods on scientific data on brain functioning and behavior change and we use humor and existential exercises while practicing and learning the necessary EQ skills.

“I see that most of the participants are now more confident, better team players, and enjoy the hard work they do daily,” says Hellberg. I can only recommend that others join the journey.”
Lars Hellberg, Fortaco’s President and CEO
Recruitment and Assessments
We match and assess candidates to job requirements. EQ Europe has a long global history of recruiting and assessing high-performance candidates. We provide a unique holistic and metric evaluation of each candidate focusing on both IQ, EQ, and so-called RQ (Role Quotation) While IQ measures cognitive abilities, EQ evaluates emotional and social competencies, and together with RQ, we make sure that each candidate is the right person for the job.

“Focusing on emotional intelligence (EQ) in recruiting and assessment is crucial for achieving strong performance and fostering a team-oriented, collaborative, and sustainable work environment for the future”

Making good decisions or “doing the right thing” rests on that combination of picking up signals from the environment and acting with care and consideration. EQ Europe coaches truly excel in helping you to unleash and enhance this within you. I could have not found a better use for my personal development budget”

Have you ever given some real thought to what makes people successful? Some people just seem to get along with others, they don´t get upset easily, they are balanced, proactive, meet challenges with thought and consideration and have great insight into themselves and others. They have what we call high Emotional Intelligence and these EQ skills not only make them pleasant to be around, but they are seen as loyal and trustworthy and they tend to be the ones that get promotions at work and are appreciated and successful as leaders. These skills can be measured, learned and developed and they play a big role in making people feel engaged at work and contributes to culturally diverse workplaces where people can excel and make companies and organizations successful.
All jobs today require Emotional Intelligence. As business has become more complex and more global there are very few, if any jobs, that do not require interaction with other people. People skills have become crucial and there is a big difference between those that have the skills and those that do not and high and average performers. The research is compelling! Competency research in over 200 companies and organisation's worldwide suggests that about one-third (1/3) of this difference is due to technical skills and cognitive ability while two-thirds (2/3) is due to EQ. In top leadership positions, it is even more important where over four-fifths (4/5) of the difference is due to Social Emotional competences.
