Opportunities / Obstacles Quotient

Program Summary:

The Opportunities / Obstacles Quotient Profile (QO2) is a unique tool that determines the ‘balance’ of effort people put into seeing the opportunities or obstacles at work and how they are likely to approach risk.  At work, it is important to have to have this balance.  People who focus on the opportunities without seeing potential obstacles can make hasty decisions, whereas those who focus too much on the obstacles may never give the go-ahead to new projects or ventures.

The QO2 Profiles provides personalized feedback on how an individual will see and respond to new situations and changes, solve problems, whether they sustain their focus on goals, how they handle risk and whether they take a broad view that encompasses past, present and future.

The Risk-Orientation model is the basis of the QO2 concept and defines five subscales that are used to calculate the QO2.
Quotient
  • MTG Energy – how much energy you put into ‘Moving Towards Your Goals’
  • Multi-Pathways – the extent to which you find ways around obstacles
  • Fault-Finding – how good you are at seeing potential obstacles
  • Optimism – the extent to which you expect positive outcomes
  • Time-Focus – a measure of your psychological time and your orientations to the past, the present or the future
