Insight alone contributes only 20% to behavior change. The other 80% comes from disciplined practice, so that the new discoveries become an automatic part of your thoughts, perspectives, and actions. This is an immersive, 8-week program, supported by an app, which gives you the tools to not only practice, but master these insights.

There are excellent books on how to master your mindset, including the book that launched this program. But to affect real, sustainable change on your own, unsupported and with no accountability, is too hard for many people. My application of this program, with its daily doses of micro-learning, weekly group sessions, and 1:1 coaching makes it easier to build on new insights and lock-in new mindsets.

There are no specific steps you have to take or mantras to repeat in order to see changes in your work and your life. Instead, this program builds from your life, so you apply the lessons immediately as you go through the day, and what you’re learning applies specifically to your life.

The Positive Intelligence program applies neuroscience research on how we respond to positive and negative influences, and how to rewire our thinking and reactions. It applies factor analysis to the identification of root causes. And it has been field tested with thousands of people around the globe to ensure efficacy and measurable results.

There are four parts to the program: 1) a one-hour training video once a week; 2) a 45-minute group call once a week; 3) 10-15 minutes per day engaged in micro-learning modules (2-3 minutes each); 4) two 60-minute 1:1 coaching calls. With the exception of the group calls, you can do these pieces when it fits your schedule. The program lasts for 8 weeks.

If you need to miss one of the group calls, that's fine. If you think you’ll miss more than one, it’s probably best to join a later cohort.

If you’re diligent about following the program, you should start to see changes within the first 2-3 weeks. Of course, there’s so much else to learn — even after the 8-week program is finished. And it may be that others notice the changes before you do.

Everyone has blindspots in their thinking, behavior, and how they are being perceived by others. The more you know about yourself, the better able you’ll be to navigate the tricky and challenging paths we all face.

Only in short bursts. Chronic stress, or thinking that you can only be successful if you are stressed, actually limits your success and threatens your health. In addition, if stress is your default mode, you are impacting the effectiveness and health of those around you, as well.

That’s a great idea, whether they do this at the same time as you or in a separate cohort. There's incredible value in having a common language and shared experience about how to identify negative reactions and perspectives, and having the tools and shared accountability to select more effective and focused paths. 

My wife and I have both been through this training, and that common understanding and language has boosted our relationship tremendously. As well, business teams that have gone through this program together report stronger connections, improved communications, and greater focus.

No, it's very different. Toxic positivity is present when someone feels they have to be positive in the face of any situation, often in irrational and even frantic ways. Positive Intelligence doesn't turn a blind eye to difficult situations, it just helps you more quickly and effectively navigate them. 

Increased resilience is a significant by-product of the growth you’ll experience in this program, helping you recover faster from set-backs and move forward with clear, laser-focused actions.

No, but how long do you want to tolerate negative thoughts and emotions? The sooner you start this program, the better your life gets. I wish I had learned this decades ago, but I'm so grateful I know it now. It improves my life every day.
