“I am more resilient and able to deal with whatever comes my way."

Maria Lordan Dunphy

Assistant National Director Quality and Patient Safety Health Services Executive

"I undertook the 6-week flagship positive intelligence mental fitness programme 6 months ago, I found it hugely beneficial personally and professionally. I am better in myself, calmer in addressing problematic issues/relationships, I am more relaxed and can manage my own response to stress and external stressors better. I am better as a manager both in my relationships with my team and others. I use it every day throughout the day even though I have a really responsible and busy job. I am better when I do the mental fitness exercises at the start of the day, it sets me up for a far better day and I am much more productive as I am more resilient and able to deal with whatever comes my way! It has also benefited me in my personal life…”

How is your Mental Fitness impacted?

Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotions in the way you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent automated patterns in your mind for how to think, feel, and respond. They cause all of your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage your performance, wellness, and relationships.

Take the PQ Saboteur assessment.

Mental Fitness is the X-Factor

If you’re not physically fit, you’d feel physical stress as you climb a steep hill.

If you’re not mentally fit, you’d feel mental stress, such as anxiety, frustration, or unhappiness, as you handle work and life challenges.

The PQ Operating System

In computing, one Operating System can run a whole suite of applications.

In our approach, Positive Intelligence (PQ) is the Operating System that enables many "applications," including the development of soft skills and positive mindsets.

The enormous variety of ways people sabotage their own effectiveness and happiness are caused by just 10 factors (Saboteurs). Most people are afflicted with a few Saboteurs.  

More importantly, we've discovered that there are only 5 core positive powers (Sage).

To grow your mental fitness, or develop the most critical emotional intelligence, leadership, or sales competencies, all you need to do is weaken your few Saboteurs and grow your 5 positive Sage powers.  

We call this the PQ Operating System, since a few core components result in so many "applications." This dramatically simplifies personal and professional development. 

We boost your mental fitness through a six-week video/app-guided program involving 15 min/day of practice. 

We focus on weakening your Saboteurs, growing your Sage, and Self-Command.

By the end of these six weeks, you have "installed" this operating system in your own mind and can use its mental muscle building blocks in a variety of work and life applications.

Testimonials

Positive Intelligence provides a great way to interpret how and why I react the way I do, and more importantly to develop the "brain muscle" to interpret and react differently and better to all life's challenges - less stress.

- Eric Bass | University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center

I used a tactile exercise yesterday after an unsuccessful resuscitation in the ER. It was a good way to stop any residual thoughts about the resuscitation and move on with the rest of my shift. Two minutes in the change room and I was ready to go back to work.
