In addition to the narrative questions shown in the report thus far, the study also includes quantitative findings. First, further insights on the meaning of the semantic analysis.
Trends Within Unique Experiences of EQ
As a global organization, with members active in 174 countries, and tools used in every sector from A to Z (auto manufacturing to zoos and everything in between), it's no easy matter to see a singular story of development. People join Six Seconds for many reasons – managers seeking tools for their own leadership, teachers working to meet the challenges students face today, professionals building solutions for their clients, individuals finding a path forward in their lives.
At the same time, within all this diversity, there are common elements. Six Seconds advocates for an "inside out" approach, growing on the inside the capabilities we wish to share on the outside. This principle seems to be widely adopted as the study finds a clear trend of going from individual experimentation with EQ toward broader sharing with others.
Another theme is that people in the Six Seconds' community see emotional intelligence as something far beyond a "tool" or "product." As expressed in this quote, EQ is a framework for life:
“情商带给了我乐趣、自由、全球化的连接和责任感,让我带着深刻的理解去生活和工作,并且带着意图和同理心去采取行动,为创造一个更加美好的世界而努力。”
In addition to the narrative comments, the study included several quantitative questions. Below are additional details on the internal process of growing EQ, the length of time it takes to progress through the stages of the journey, and more about the participants.
