On November 28, 2010, Six Seconds Jordan successfully completed its first public EQ workshop entitled “EQ at Work”.







 

Six Seconds Jordan for Training and Consulting Services has recently hosted and completed its first EQ certification for leaders, HR professionals, trainers, coaches and consultants. This workshop falls in line with “Six Seconds International” plans to expand in the Middle East, and add a group of highly prestigious and certified Arabic speaking professionals to its pool of certified Emotional Intelligence (EQ) practitioners which includes more than 3,000 members worldwide. 

The five day workshop is based on the latest research in neuroscience and focuses on introducing and enhancing the emotional intelligence of the participants by focusing on the “Six Seconds EQ In-Action Model” which was developed in 1997. This model begins with three important pursuits: “Know Yourself”, “Choose yourself” and “Give Yourself”.  Within these pursuits, there are eight specific, measurable, learnable competencies including: clearly understanding what we feel, recognizing patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving, applying consequential thinking, navigating emotions, exercising optimism, increasing empathy with others and pursuing noble goals. By applying the model, one becomes more aware (noticing what one does), more intentional (doing what one means), and more purposeful (doing it for a reason).

On this occasion, Hussein Tawalbeh – Director Business Development Six Seconds Middle East - stated: “We are delighted that our first of its kind workshop in Jordan was a great success.  Our purpose is to engage and certify participants so that they become members of our pool of practitioners, and use their knowledge to help us in raising EQ awareness and practices through training and empowering others in their respective roles as professionals in every sector of society.

and Six Seconds Regional Director and Master Trainer, Jayne Morrison added: “With the momentum and growth of Human Capital Development that Jordan and the Middle East are witnessing; the timing is perfect.  The emotional intelligence (EQ) training and consulting will fuel this development and accelerate human effectiveness in organizations and institutions both in the private and public sectors throughout the region.”

 

We are delighted to announce that Six Seconds has opened its seventh office in the world. The new office is located in Amman, Jordan and will be managed by certified Six Seconds practitioners Mr. Nadeem Nahhas and Ms. Souhair Dahdaleh.

.
Nadeem’s commitment to developing the people-side of performance began when he worked in Sales and Marketing across different sectors within the service industry. After 6 years as a trainer and consultant, he became increasingly committed to the core skills of emotional intelligence as “the difference that makes the difference” in performance. His Noble Goal is “To influence people positively towards healthy and fruitful living” and he is committed to living his life as a role-model manifesting the principles of emotional intelligence.

.

Having worked for about 9 years in the Marketing and Management fields, Souhair found out that her real calling in life lies in helping and empowering people. Her noble goal is “To passionately foster inspirational support and empowerment.” In order to live this noble goal, she did a career shift from Marketing to soft skills training and coaching. She became passionate about EQ after attending a short workshop in Jordan and reading a number of EQ books and then joining Six Seconds’ programs in the region.

.

The new office is in line with Six Seconds commitment to spread the transformational skills of EQ into even more places in the world, and specifically expand in the Middle East region. The Jordan office brings group of highly prestigious and certified Arabic speaking professionals to its pool of certified Emotional Intelligence (EQ) practitioners which incorporates more than 3,000 members worldwide. The timing is perfect with the momentum and growth Human Capital Development is witnessing in Jordan and the Middle East area and the need to build stronger, healthier, and more prosperous communities, businesses, families, and nations in the region and beyond.

With the global economic slowdown, Jordan’s GDP growth has suffered and foreign assistance to the government in 2009 dropped; slowing down the government’s efforts to control the large budget deficit. Jordan is mainly a services based economy where services consist of more than 65% of total GDP. This means that Jordan’s Human Capital represents a major asset and has a direct impact on the economic growth in the country. In introducing EQ to Jordan, Six Seconds Jordan team is committed to carry out a positive role in developing the skills and capabilities of the employees of various development sectors, and apply up-to-date training and consulting methods to meet the needs and wants of the different organizations in the private and public sectors.

As Nadeem put it: “We feel elated and proud to have been chosen to represent the Six Seconds network in Jordan. It gives us great pleasure to launch Six Seconds’ unique Emotional Intelligence (EQ) training and consulting services, and become a real contributor to the latest research and development in this arena.”
