Imagine a Team That Works in Harmony Creating Great Results


When emotional intelligence becomes part of the culture, goals get met with less friction—and your team starts working together, not just side by side.

ELEAVATE EQ helps make that possible.

  • Emotional intelligence, or EQ, is the ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. It's a crucial skill in both personal and professional life.

"A culture focused on EQ is paramount in driving high-functioning teams. As a founder, I always felt like I was digging with a spoon, delicately navigating issues and personalities driven by emotional intelligence. Russ came in with an excavator and unearthed what would have taken me months or years connecting to the team on an intimate level that could not have been done on my own. It is an absolute game-changer and accelerator in building peak culture and driving a top team."

RUSS + DANIELLE WEST

We’ve been where you are.

For years, we struggled with miscommunication, stress, and unresolved conflict. We loved each other, but we didn’t know how to talk about the hard stuff without it turning into tension.

We spent two decades in proactive couples counseling, learning what actually works when it comes to communication, connection, and handling conflict in a way that brings you closer instead of further apart.

Little did we know just how valuable these tools would be with our friendships, at work, with family members, etc…

Now, we’re sharing those same proven tools with you. Russ shares lessons learned from 30+ years as a top Enterprise Software Sales Representative.
