What is Positive Intelligence?
Positive Intelligence (PQ) is a research-backed mental fitness program developed by Shirzad Chamine, a Stanford lecturer and New York Times bestselling author. It synthesizes the latest in neuroscience, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral psychology, and performance science.
The core idea is simple: your mind is your best friend — but it can also be your worst enemy. PQ measures the percentage of time your mind is working for you versus against you, and gives you the tools to shift that balance.
Over 500,000 people have taken the PQ Saboteur Assessment, and the 6-week program has been used by teams at Google, Stanford, and hundreds of organizations worldwide.
