Understand the methodology behind Rowi

Rowi is built on the science of Six Seconds, the world leader in emotional intelligence. Here we explain the frameworks we use and link to everything you need to get started.

The Six Seconds frameworks

Three complementary, validated models that structure how Rowi measures and develops emotional intelligence.

Vital Signs

The annual emotional climate diagnostic. It measures 5 drivers (Trust, Motivation, Change, Teamwork and Execution) through 15 pulse points, the operational levers of daily life.

  • 5 climate drivers
  • 15 operational pulse points
  • OVS · TVS · LVS · FVS variants

KCG · 8 SEI competencies

Know · Choose · Give: the Six Seconds personal operating system. Three circular movements that articulate the 8 emotional intelligence competencies measured by the SEI.

  • Know Yourself — literacy + patterns
  • Choose Yourself — thinking, navigation, motivation, optimism
  • Give Yourself — empathy + noble goals

18 Brain Talents

The 18 "brain apps" spread across 3 dimensions — Focus, Decision and Motivation — that describe how we process information, navigate uncertainty and sustain energy.

  • Focus — how you process information
  • Decision — how you navigate uncertainty
  • Motivation — how you sustain energy

The BE2GROW hypothesis

Each pulse point is hypothetically activated by a set of SEI competencies and supported by specific Brain Talents. This matrix is the v0 version of Rowi's inference model: a hypothesis, not calibrated truth. Each debrief and each real data point refines it toward future versions.

We are preparing practical PDF guides on Vital Signs, the KCG model and Brain Talents. We will publish them here when they are ready. In the meantime, explore the methodology in the sections above.
