Passion Quotient (PQ)

Passion is a very powerful feeling. It is geared to be the driving force for all human beings. It is such a strong feeling that you could almost define passion as something that you can’t not do.

By definition, passion is not something you display only on weekends or bi monthly. Passion is a way of being. For e.g.: As a musician, if I am not playing music, I am thinking about it. As a martial artist, if I am not moving, then I am constructing a way to move in my head.

You live the moment with complete,
a. awareness,
b. sensitivity,
c. skill.

Organisations should start looking at people with passion to be a part of their system. Highly passionate individuals, i.e. people having high PQ, deliver a lot more than the others. Their sense of commitment is their driving force. People with high PQ do not need constant monitoring. Passion becomes their guide. People with high PQ are always striving to better themselves. And as a result, will better the organisation they are working with.

Organisations need to start investing into the personal lives of their employees. If an employee is spending 10 hours at work, sleeping for 8 hours, travelling for 2 hours, then he is left with only 4 hours to manage his/her life, relationships etc. And that may not be enough. Eventually, an employee will compromise on the foundations of what is needed to be a super professional. When organisations invest in their employees in order to get them to discover their own passion, magic happens.

PQ (passion) = IQ (intellectual) + EQ (emotional) + EnQ (entrepreneural)
