About Q4: What Makes Q4 Different?

Our name, "Q4," reflects our core focus on integrating mind, body, spirit as lived and reflected in our work and communities.

Our Commitment

We are dedicated to a new way of leaders and their teams working together to advance systemic change that supports and cultivates thriving, generative organizations committed to the health and well-being of all living systems.

Our Philosophy

Two tenets sit as integral to our philosophy: mindfulness and embodied learning.

Mindfulness is the powerful capacity to be awake, aware and actively attentive to yourself, people and situations in the moment-it gets to the heart of the matter.

Embodied learning involves cultivating a particular way of being that produces trust, commitment and skillful action.

Rooted solidly in the sciences, mindfulness and embodied learning together have proven to significantly reduce stress and increase resiliency, stimulate effective, meaningful communication, bring keen focus to decisions, and results in skillful action toward what matters most.

Our Core Values

• Learning - openness to new, creative ideas & practices
• Engagement - active listening and dialogue toward effective solutions
• Integrity - adherence to sound ethical principles & authentic practices
• Community - ongoing participation & contribution
• Right Action - the ability to take skillful action that matters

We practice what we preach. At Q4 we hold a strong, ongoing commitment to learning over time via ongoing practices, and to effective, collaborative partnerships that further the work of creating strong businesses, healthy workplaces and engaged communities.

Our Principles

We're driven by the vision of a generative future for all rather than simply driven by the bottom line.

We're focused on leadership qualities vs. leadership knowledge for its own sake.

We believe that the ability to influence and shape the future requires the leader's cultivation of the self.

We believe that everyone can develop his or her leadership capacity.

We hold that the most effective learning is experientially-based and integrates mind, body, spirit where you work and live.

We seek to learn from and integrate the solid, cutting edge research from the neurosciences with the mindful attention of the wisdom traditions into all our program offers.

We seek to develop the underlying somatic intelligence that informs the development of emotional intelligence required by leaders to effectively lead into a new future.
