While searching for a name for ourselves, we were greatly influenced by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's concept of "flow." 

​

From the early 1900s, the most prominent concept in industry and psychological research was intelligence or IQ. 

​

However, starting from the 1970s, the measurement of competencies, including concepts like emotional intelligence, gained significance. The combination of IQ and EQ signaled the beginning of a period where understanding and assessing human behavior became more valid and reliable. 

​

Following this period, the positive psychology movement started to focus on individuals' strengths and examined the state of well-being. During this process, the concept of "flow" gained significant prominence. 

​

Flow is defined as an experience that occurs when a person's skills align with the task at hand, making them feel happy, productive and meaningful. After the eras of the IQ and EQ paradigms, we believed that a new era had begun for both individuals and organizations, and we decided to name ourselves "FlowQ," signifying "Flow Intelligence," aiming to be pioneers in this new era.
