Squared SQ’s Social Value Metrics
Squared SQ’s Social Value Metrics (SVM) is a groundbreaking system developed to quantify and analyze the often-overlooked dimensions of human interaction and relational capital. Rooted in over a decade of research, SVM captures how individuals and organizations generate, exchange, and sustain value through their social networks and behavioral patterns.
Unlike traditional performance or personality assessments, SVM evaluates nine core social variables across 18 value categories, leveraging over 300 unique social capital indicators. These metrics are collected through a structured six-parts questionnaire process, each taking just five minutes, allowing for comprehensive yet accessible insight into individual and group dynamics.
SVM is designed to uncover strengths and blind spots in areas such as trust, collaboration, value alignment, leadership influence, learning orientation, and network supportiveness. Whether used for hiring, team-building, admissions, partnerships, or personal development, SVM offers a data-driven foundation to make more aligned, meaningful, and strategic decisions about people.
By translating the abstract concept of social capital into measurable, actionable data, Social Value Metrics empowers users to cultivate high-trust environments, foster inclusive communities, and unlock untapped human potential.
