Abstract

There is a strategic approach to leveraging the full value of the EQ-i 2.0^® to enhance talent management practices. Beyond its traditional use in pre-hire assessments, the EQ-i 2.0^® can serve as a powerful tool for driving continuous talent development and organizational growth. In this session, draw on extensive client data from JVR Consulting, which explores key demographic trends and EQ-i 2.0^® usage patterns in South Africa.

Through real-world case studies, we demonstrate the EQ-i 2.0^®’s versatility as a strategic asset for improving workplace performance and delivering a measurable return on investment. The discussion concludes with actionable recommendations for business and HR leaders, empowering them to integrate emotional intelligence into their talent strategies to ultimately drive organizational success.
