Adversity Response Profile

Response-Ability Measuring Our Ability and Predictable Way of Handling Things

How many adverse events do you experience on your average day? Are you consumed by these events or are you letting them lead you to stronger performance? Dr. Paul Stoltz developed the Adversity Quotient (AQ) to test the unconscious pattern of how people respond to adversity, and show how to increase it and, thereby, help individuals become valuable in life, business and with their finances.
