Energy Intelligence Program - Life Skills For Innovation

ExIQ increases the quantity and quality of our personal and collective energy to solve our toughest social impact problems. Our method builds wellness, empathy, inclusiveness, and courage through blended experiential and online learning. These life skills that lay the foundation for creativity and innovation, build resilience and create happier humans.

Change requires energy. Social change requires even more, over extended periods.

Collectively our energy is depleted by an epidemic of epidemics. Our human energy crisis.

Physically (obesity/sleep deprivation)

Mentally (depression/anxiety/stress)

Emotionally (domestic violence/child abuse and neglect)

Spiritually (lack of fulfillment/workforce engagement)

This is occurring despite more knowledge than ever before about energy and wellness.

For for the youth of today to build the solutions of tomorrow they need to learn how to build their personal and collective energy.

We do this by building energy intelligence. Or ExIQ.

A force for good in social change.

Designed by experts in change and transformation, pilot programs achieved an average 30% in energy in six weeks with as little as 6 hours of teaching. 

Human-centred techniques have intrinsic and extrinsic motivators working in parallel. This stimulates change immediately, builds courage and accelerates mastery.

Flexible and personalised at scale, participants are kept accountable to micro achievements which embed learning with less perceived effort.

Diverse styles are catered for through facilitated workshops, online, and a virtual coaching app.

Live data allows agile adjustment of programs at a personal and collective level while providing insights into the overall wellness of communities. 

ExIQ builds individual and collective energy. On average 30% increase in 6 weeks in pilot groups. Every person attending an ExIQ learning experience is able to immediately implement their learning for a positive outcome.

ExIQ is particularly powerful for anyone working in the social change context. Whether is a social entrepreneur or a teacher, having more energy equals the ability to have a bigger impact.

ExIQ is designed to be taught in any context. A blended experiential/digital learning experience delivers the greatest impact, fastest.

ExIQ makes wellness practical.
Pilot programs achieved a 30% uplift in only 6 weeks.
Data-driven to enable the design, delivery and performance tracking of personalised experiences at scale.
Improves overall well-being and performance by increasing the quantity and quality of human energy at a personal and collective level.
Teaching methodology stimulates personal growth through self-discovery while developing the personal leadership behaviours required to create the cultural conditions for adaptability, inclusion, creativity and innovation.  
Skill is developed at three levels:
Awareness: 'I know what to do'
Excellence: 'I do it consistently well'
Mastery: 'I can coach others and create energising experiences'

Design thinking methods have been used to create and deliver the program.  By turning our intuitive understanding of energy into intelligence, we better understand our body as a system. 

The program covers four strengths:

- FUEL (food/fitness/sleep/recovery)

- FIRE (passions/strengths/learning/progress)

- FEELING (relationships with self/family/work or school/tribe)

- FOCUS (goals/mindset/reflection/distractions).

People are empowered to better manage their environment to achieve overall mastery of their energy. 

Performance assessments measure:

Knowledge of what impacts our energy holistically

Existing Behaviours and Feelings that are being acted upon or experienced

Desire for a self-identified energy goal

To test the content and methodology, blended learning pilots have been delivered. 

This has consisted of online assessments, experiential learning, and 1:1 or group coaching.

With the support of Solve we will scale our impact by using inclusive design methods to build an online curriculum and train local facilitators to make the programs accessible regardless of location and financial circumstances. 

At scale our business model will be designed to both subsidise and employ disadvantaged communities.

Pilot programs have been completed February - June 2017. We are already generating revenue (August revenue estimated $US30000) through delivering face-to-face B2C and B2B training while we grow the business. We are also offering 1:1/group coaching, speaking and consulting. 

Channel partnerships with key industry bodies who advertise and sell our products directly to their members. Established relationship with The Communications Council (Australia) and the Institute of Practising Advertisers (Global).

Revenue from these will be used to extend our offering to youth and disadvantaged communities.

We are already working with startup accelerator programs that support people with disabilities (Remarkable), indigenous startups (Indigenous Business Association/Investible) and domestic violence (NSW government/ Fusion Labs). 

We will be applying for government grants to support wider innovation initiatives and startup accelerators through the delivery of startup founder wellness programs designed to prevent and overcome stress, burnout, and mental health issues.

Monetary constraints to hire more people with the capability to enable scaling of the business across technology, data and analytics, sales and operations. 

This includes content development, marketing and distribution of online learning product.

Recruitment of facilitators.
