Six Seconds Model of Emotional Intelligence

Know Yourself
Clearly seeing what you feel and
do.
Emotions are data, and these
competencies allow you to
accurately collect that information.
Choose Yourself
Doing what you mean to do.
Instead of reacting “on autopilot,”
these competencies allow you to
proactively respond.
Give Yourself
Doing it for a reason.
These competencies help you
put your vision and mission into
action so you lead on purpose
and with full integrity.
Gives you the “what” – when you Know
Yourself, you know your strengths and
challenges, you know what you are doing,
what you want, and what to change.
Provides the “how” – it shows you how to
take action, how to influence yourself and
others, how to “operationalize” these
concepts.
Delivers the “why” – when you Give
Yourself you are clear and full of energy so
you stay focused why to respond a certain
way, why to move in a new direction, and
why others should come on board.
