The HQ Method™
A smarter way to lead, relate, and perform
What if leadership wasn’t just about performance — but presence?
At Executive HQ™, we integrate strategic advising, psychology-informed coaching, and team consulting into a proprietary system: The HQ Method™. The HQ Method™ is a proprietary leadership model that integrates four essential forms of intelligence: IQ, EQ, SQ, and AQ — all anchored within your internal Headquarters.
Framework Introduction
Your Internal HQ
Most leaders are taught to lead from the neck up. But true leadership is full-body. Strategic. Relational. Self-aware. The HQ Method™ re-centers leadership around your internal headquarters — the place where intellect, emotion, and connection converge.
It’s here that we strengthen the three core Qs:
IQ — Your cognitive horsepower: strategic thinking, decision-making, operational systems
EQ — Your emotional landscape: regulation, resilience, self-awareness, interpersonal grace
SQ — Your relational world: communication, team dynamics, cultural intelligence, values-in-action
AQ — Your adversity superpower: resilience, mental, emotional, behavioral structure and systems for success
Together, they create HQ — holistic intelligence. This isn’t fluff. It’s your competitive edge.
Why the Qs Matter
Your company’s success depends on your internal stability.
When you’re stretched thin, running fast, or emotionally flooded, even your best frameworks collapse.
Leaders today are navigating more complexity than ever — economic shifts, culture wars, generational disconnect, health stress, personal transition. And most of it happens quietly, behind the scenes.
The HQ Method™ gives you the clarity, stamina, and relational intelligence to lead through it all — with less burnout and more command.
