Master the Gap™: Feel · Master the Gap · Emote
Between what happens to you and how you respond, there is a gap. That space between feeling an emotion and responding to it is where character is formed.
Master the Gap™ is Vince’s practical approach to emotional intelligence: feel what you feel, choose your response, and express it on purpose. It is the foundation under every ElevateNation program, from emotional intelligence training to executive coaching.
The platform family

Every ElevateNation tool is built on the same conviction: visibility creates accountability, and people feel seen when technology is designed with them in mind.
A team scoreboard that lives inside Microsoft Outlook. Everyone sees where the work stands, and leaders know what is moving without having to ask.

Real transformation, one road at a time. Each app is a 30-day journey built by someone who walked it first: fear, anger, shame, forgiveness.
The ElevateNation difference
Most tech is cold.
We build warm.
“As our world becomes more and more technological, my desire is to keep finding ways to connect people — and find the heartbeat.”
The self-help industry is enormous, and largely failing people. Most software is the same: powerful on the spec sheet, cold in the room. ElevateNation was built to fix that.
Every tool we build carries the same design question: does this make the person using it feel seen and valued? If the answer is no, we build it again.
From team accountability platforms to mental training apps for kids, The Power of Emotional Intelligence is not just our tagline. It is the test we run on everything we ship.
What leaders say
Real leaders. Real results.
Vincent propelled our organization from a traditional top-down structure to a collaborative, cohesive unit.
effectively helps you navigate a lifetime’s worth of emotional responses and behaviors to unpack what’s driving them and set you up for success in business and beyond. The process allows you to show up calm and emotionally unflappable no matter what gets lobbed at you across that conference room.
I have been extremely fortunate to work with Vince over the past few years. He is masterful at listening to understand and asking the critical questions needed to expose the opportunity and path that lay before you as a leader. I can say with confidence that I am a better leader and human being today because of Vince.

About the bookCommon questions
Executive coaching and emotional intelligence, answered.
What does an executive coach do?
An executive coach is a confidential thinking partner for a leader. Vincent Barlow’s approach starts with the emotional patterns underneath a leader’s goals, uses EQi 2.0 and EQ 360 data to show how the leader operates under pressure and how other people experience them, and then builds new habits over months, not just sessions. Learn about executive coaching with Vince.
What is emotional intelligence coaching?
Emotional intelligence (EQ) coaching develops the skills behind how a person understands and manages their own emotions and relates to others: self-awareness, stress management, empathy and decision making. ElevateNation pairs the research-based EQi 2.0 assessment with coaching and the Master the Gap™ framework so insight turns into everyday behavior. See how emotional intelligence training works.
What is an EQ 360, and how is it different from a regular 360 review?
Most 360 reviews are an online survey. ElevateNation’s EQ 360 is built from eight to twelve confidential interviews conducted personally by Vince, combined with EQ-i 2.0, Myers-Briggs and TKI assessments, ten one-on-one coaching sessions and a closing re-survey that measures what changed. See the EQ 360 process and pricing.

Let’s talk
Who is the leader you keep thinking about?
Most engagements begin the same way: someone has one person in mind and has been carrying the problem for a while. Start there. One conversation, no obligation.
