Your title doesn’t build trust—
Your habits do:
You don’t need more leadership theory.
You need a clear system for
what great leaders
actually do.
The strongest leaders don’t
just think strategically or
inspire with words.
They build range—
Skills that cover how they think, act,
connect, and adapt under pressure.
This sheet breaks down the 8 quotients
every high-performing leader grows:
⬛ SQ – Navigate group dynamics with skill
🟪 EQ – Read emotions, manage yours
🟫 CQ – Be someone people believe in
🟦 VQ – Lead with bold, simple vision
🟥 IQ – Think clearly under pressure
🟩 XQ – Follow through with action
🟧 RQ – Build real trust with others
🟨 AQ – Stay steady in chaos
You don’t need to master all 8 at once.
Pick one. Build the habit.
Then stack the next.
Most people want better results.
But they skip the habits that create them.
Every leader is made by
small choices no one sees.
And it leaves people better than it found them.
