Assess — understand your starting point
Look at the person, the work, and what matters now. Assessment insights support a development conversation, not a verdict.
EQFIT® About Steve Goodner
Your experience matters.
So does what comes next.
I’m Steve Goodner, founder of EQFIT® and Goodner Strategic Consulting.
My work brings coaching, emotional intelligence, and practical AI together to help people understand themselves and move toward the work they want to do.
Let’s have a conversation
More success with less stress.
Why this work matters
Start with the person.
Connect it to their world.
Over more than four decades in business, coaching, and consulting, I’ve worked with people who care deeply about what they do and want their effort to lead somewhere meaningful.
My background in psychology and neuroscience informs how I approach emotional intelligence, behavior, patterns, habit formation, development, and transformation. We begin with your situation, build on your strengths, and work toward changes you can put into practice.
The bigger picture
How do your pieces
fit together?
You can see some of your pieces. Some you can’t. But how do they fit the big picture?
Some have come together and work well as a team, some are still working on their own, and some are working against each other.
Together, we explore how your strengths, experience, relationships, and ways of working can support the direction you want to take.
How we work
Assess. Equip.
Align. Succeed.
Equip — build what helps you move forward
Develop skills, practical tools, and AI support tailored to your strengths, working patterns, and priorities.
Align — make the pieces work together
Connect your insights, habits, relationships, and ways of working around the outcome you want to achieve.
Succeed — put the pathway into practice
Apply the work, review your progress, and refine what helps. Build on what you learn as your needs and priorities develop.
Development use only. The EQFIT® Edge™ assessments support growth, coaching, and skill development. They are not intended for personnel decisions.
Writing and conversation
Another way
to get to know the work.
Books and ideas
Steve’s writing explores emotional intelligence, sales, guiding others, and the human side of business. The Guide’s Edge™ books connect two sides of guiding: The Person explores how you show up with others; The Practice explores the work of building a sustainable practice. Steve’s sales writing connects emotional intelligence with real sales conversations.
