Why the SEI?
- Ilaria Boffa
Why should you use the SEI questionnaire and reports to measure Emotional Intelligence? Here below a few good reasons:
➻ Six Seconds Model - practical, action oriented, simple yet sophisticated = helps people change
➻ Development Focus - learnable competencies, tailored advice and development activities in the report = gets results
➻ Range of Tools - array of reports & assessments for adults and youth, training modules, curricula, and supporting products = systematic approach
➻ Rigorous - best-in-class psychometrics, normed and standardized = reliable
➻ International - more languages than any other EQ assessment, developed & validated worldwide = works with your people
➻ Easy Interface - online, takes about 10 minutes = saves time
➻ Advanced algorithm - including the first AI for emotional intelligence = insightful data
The Six Seconds Emotional Intelligence Assessment (SEI) is the complete solution for EQ measurement and development. This suite of well validated, effective tests measure EQ and equip people with a framework for putting emotional intelligence into action.
SEI is used in over 150 countries for a broad range of training, coaching, selection, and development needs in orgs from FedEx to Qatar Airways to the U.N. SEI is best-in-class because of the blend of robust psychometrics, real-world practicality for a wide range of needs, and global relevance.
What makes SEI such an effective assessment tool?
Where several other EQ tools provide meaningful feedback, the SEI is unique because it’s not JUST feedback, it delivers a process framework that equips people to actually USE emotional intelligence. The SEI also links EQ to real life; it includes two questionnaires, an assessment of current “success factors” (e.g., effectiveness and relationships) and the EQ measure; this puts EQ in the context of important work & life outcomes, providing the “so what?” to make EQ relevant.
The SEI is a scientifically validated, practical measure of emotional intelligence with an action-oriented model supporting people to use and improve their EQ skills. Built on the Six Seconds Model of Emotional Intelligence, the SEI is unusual: where other tools provide a diagnosis, SEI provides a framework for action.
The model is simple enough to jump in, but sophisticated enough to drive long-term transformation.
SEI is led by a global team, available and validated in 20+ languages.
While the SEI is designed for learning and development, it has the statistical rigor to be used in selection and in advanced applications.
There is a DEEP and wide range of programs and tools to support the use of the tool — numerous books, training curricula, classroom programs, and hands-on tools."
