Who is more important, EQ or IQ? Release date: May 4, 2006 15: 1 1: 38.
For a long time, people have been used to measuring talents by IQ, but modern research shows that the decisive factor of talent success is not only IQ, but also EQ. A considerable number of people who succeed in the field of management are people who are considered to have low IQ in school.
We often see such a person, who has received higher education, and his IQ enriches his knowledge, enabling him to work in a unit or engage in a research work smoothly. If he has high emotional intelligence, stable mood, strong ability to adapt to the environment, has low requirements for the outside world, superiors and colleagues, has a proper evaluation of himself, does not "swell with heat and contract with cold" because of external influence, can "rally" when frustrated, can constantly improve his psychological quality, and never complains about others or is pessimistic and disappointed. Only in this way can his IQ and potential be brought into full play, and he can be comfortable and successful in his work. On the other hand, although a person has a high IQ, he is conceited and has a low EQ, and he is troubled by the unsatisfactory environment around him day and night. Then his ending is either cynicism or narcissism, and he can't get along with society, company and colleagues. If you are high, you will not be low, and you will be mediocre all your life; Or go astray and be destroyed by high IQ crimes. Therefore, whether a person is successful or not is as important as IQ.
People often attach importance to IQ and ignore EQ. As can be seen from the above examples, people with high IQ can achieve something in their majors, while people with high EQ can achieve something in management and operation. No matter what career you succeed in, successful people often have high IQ and EQ. Therefore, in modern management, managers should learn more about EQ. Although EQ has a natural component, it can be continuously improved through continuous learning and experience accumulation, so high EQ is not an unattainable thing. If you want to be a successful person, you should not only learn new knowledge and skills in related fields, but also consciously improve your emotional intelligence, which can affect the exertion of other abilities.
Intelligence quotient (IQ) is a tool to express intelligence level, and it is also a common method to measure intelligence level. The IQ level reflects the intelligence level. Emotional quotient (EQ) is the ability to express one's emotions. The level of EQ reflects the difference of emotional quality. Emotional intelligence plays a more important role in people's success than IQ.
IQ and EQ are both important psychological qualities of people and an important foundation for career success. So both of them are indispensable in our work and life. Of course, it is impossible to split the two factors 50-50. Which do you think is more important in the face of the two major factors of success?

Microsoft Global Vice President: EQ is more important than IQ.
2004- 1-5 Beijing talent market was read 2020 times.
In 2000, Kai-fu Lee wrote "My View on Talents" and "A Letter to Students in China" to college students in China. Two articles are widely circulated in China's internet and universities. It is mentioned that adhering to the principle of honesty and integrity, living in groups, being a positive person, challenging yourself and communicating directly are seemingly simple, but they are listed as mottoes by many college students. "I recently wrote a second letter to China students," Kai-fu Lee said a few days ago. "This letter talks about the important qualities of leaders." Everyone thinks that the IQ of leaders is very important in high-tech enterprises, but in fact, EQ is more important than IQ.
A well-known research institution in the United States investigated 188 companies, tested the IQ and EQ of each company's executives, and analyzed the test results of each supervisor and their performance at work. The results show that for leaders, the influence of EQ is 9 times that of IQ. People with slightly lower IQ can also succeed if their EQ index is higher.
Kai-fu Lee said that EQ means having enough courage to face the challenges that can be overcome, enough measurement to accept the challenges that cannot be overcome, and enough wisdom to distinguish the difference between the two. He is very much in favor of "establishing an evaluation index system for all kinds of talents composed of factors such as morality, knowledge and ability".
Regarding EQ, Kai-fu Lee talked more about being good at communicating with people, being conscious and empathetic. For example, a conscious mind is what China people often say: "having self-knowledge", having a clear understanding of one's own quality, potential, strengths, defects, experience, etc., and having a clear positioning of the role one may play in social work and life. Empathy is to compare your heart with your own.
Kai-fu Lee still clearly remembers the help of his mentor Roger Reddy at Carnegie Mellon University. Roger Reddy is a member of the Information Committee of the President's Special Advisory Committee and a Turing Prize winner. As a scientist, he is not omniscient, but he knows how to look at a field he doesn't understand and how to use some of the most difficult questions to stimulate students' enthusiasm and imagination.
During the research of computer speech recognition, Kai-fu Lee became suspicious of the method advocated by his tutor and planned to try other methods. In this way, a world-class top master and his students who have not graduated have differences.
Roger Reddy finally said, "I don't agree with you, but I can support you." It was this attitude of the mentor that influenced Kai-fu Lee's life.

EQ is more important than IQ.
Source: Hongta Primary School Author: Li Chunliang Time: September 2005-168: 39: 41.
Recently, my daughter and I read the book 100 childhood stories of Nobel Prize winners. The IQ of these Nobel Prize winners is amazing, and their EQ is even more shocking to us. From this 100 story, I obviously feel that emotional intelligence is more important than IQ!
Emotional intelligence, also known as emotional intelligence, includes initiative, empathy, psychological adjustment, adaptability, coordination and adaptability. The word "EQ" was put forward by Daniel Gorman, a professor of psychology at Harvard University in the United States, in a book published in 1995. Professor Gorman believes that IQ only accounts for 20% of people's success, and the most important "other factors" account for 80%. And this "another factor" is emotional intelligence.
We don't necessarily expect our children to be Nobel Prize winners, but we hope they can get the best development. It is necessary for him or her to develop to the limit. Therefore, we should pay attention to the cultivation of emotional intelligence. So, how to cultivate children's emotional intelligence in family education?
First, the cultivation of initiative
Nobel Prize winners have initiative: active learning and active exploration. The so-called initiative is voluntary participation, which is a positive factor in people's minds and the opposite of passivity and inertia. Nowadays, many parents of only children always try their best to protect their children when they grow up, do everything for them, help them solve all difficulties and get rid of all interference. Its essence is doting. This makes children lose their normal, positive and free development personality. As a result, the cultivated children are weak, dependent and poor in ability, and this psychological characteristic of personality has extinguished their creative desire. They need the guidance and help of others everywhere, have no pioneering spirit, are limited in intellectual development and have poor hands-on ability. Suppose we try not to regard children as parents' "private property". And treat them as an independent person, let them take the initiative to participate in big and small things in the family, let them play an active role, let them fully express their opinions and delegate their due power. In this process, children feel that they have grown up psychologically, begin to believe in their own abilities, have confidence, and no longer rely on their parents; I began to try to think independently and operate by myself, trying to free myself from the bondage of my parents. Our parents should never think that this is because the children are disobedient. On the contrary, this is a gratifying progress for children. They should be encouraged to be "ingenious" and let them think, do, experience failure and feel success. In children's active participation in various activities, parents should properly guide and adjust in time, conduct scientific education according to children's physical and mental characteristics, and grow up with children.
Second, the cultivation of empathy ability.
Nobel Prize winners all have empathy: seeking happiness for all mankind. Empathy means putting yourself in others' shoes, caring for others and understanding others. People with empathy are often considered "understanding". Empathy plays an extremely important role in interpersonal communication. In family education, parents cultivate their children's empathy by letting them participate in social welfare activities. For example, give love to children in disaster areas, donate your "lucky money" and "pocket money" to peers in need, and care for friends around you. Try to send them warmth in behavior, study and life; Go to community nursing homes to participate in labor, carry out "hand in hand" activities and so on. Through specific activities, children's emotions have changed from sympathy for others to caring and understanding others, which has brought immeasurable benefits to children.
Third, the cultivation of psychological adjustment ability.
Nobel Prize winners all have the ability of psychological adjustment: perseverance. Some people say that "happiness is a feeling". The same thing, some people feel happy, and some people feel unhappy. If you want to keep a good attitude to feel and handle things, you must constantly adjust your attitude, which is the ability of psychological adjustment.
The process of psychological adjustment is not easy for children. It depends on the synchronization of family education, the improvement of parents' quality and the embodiment of scientific training methods. For example, the son of an old professor, from primary school to high school, has always been among the best in learning, but he is also excellent in other aspects. However, after entering a key university, he is no longer the best among many top students. He lost, but he can't afford to lose. He left school, because his grades were very low, and the school asked him to take a second interview. The root cause is that he didn't get the right education from his parents. Parents should seize this educational opportunity in time, talk with their children, help them analyze the reasons for their failure, show their trust in him, give him the necessary support and encouragement, and free him from his distress. In this way, it is conducive to the cultivation of children's good moral character and the development of people's non-intellectual factors. From then on, children will jump out of the small circle of personal fame and fortune, their minds will be more open and their goals will be more ambitious. This kind of education will have a far-reaching impact on children's life.
Fourthly, the cultivation of adaptability.
Nobel laureates are adaptable: no matter how bad the environment is, they can take it as it is and concentrate on scientific research. Parents should be the first teachers to cultivate and exercise their children's viability. You can create survival problems for your children according to their age characteristics. If you don't do everything for your children, let them take part in all kinds of labor; Reduce the enjoyment in life, deliberately exercise the spirit of suffering, and let him experience failure and disappointment in children's games; Children are often put in a strong environment (such as participating in various competitions) to exercise. This can not only overcome pride and urge them to forge ahead, but also make them experience setbacks at an early stage and enhance their psychological immunity; Parents go out together, let their children stay at home for a day, take care of themselves, study (under the condition of ensuring safety) and so on. The cultivation of children's adaptability is directly proportional to the growth of knowledge and experience and the improvement of various abilities, so parents should consciously expand such knowledge. For example, examples and experiences of growing up in adversity can effectively improve children's self-care, communication, learning and adaptability. Tell your child that there is nothing difficult in the world, help your child release negative emotions in a reasonable way, keep your child in a positive and happy state of mind, arouse your child's courage to overcome difficulties alone, and teach your child appropriate methods. This kind of family education has a great influence on children's thoughts. They not only learned knowledge, but also increased their knowledge. Experience the warmth around parents, experience the happiness of family, and cultivate emotional factors such as confidence, will, perseverance and courage.
Adaptive cultivation of verbs (abbreviation of verb)
Nobel laureates have the ability to adapt: twists and turns, analogies bypass. Judging from the trend of social development, people with strong adaptability have a high success rate, are popular and impressive. However, resilience is not innate, and it must be cultivated in many ways before it can be continuously formed. Family education in the new era should cultivate children's ability to infiltrate and respond to emergencies from an early age; Both parents have gone to work, only the children are at home. What if someone suddenly visits? The child lives in the same house as the old man. One day, the old man suddenly became seriously ill. What should the child do? Wait a minute. Children's handling of emergencies can greatly train children's ability to deal with emergencies, and also cultivate children's quality of staying calm in times of crisis, making the most correct judgment and adopting the most effective methods in the shortest time. A few days ago, I reported in the newspaper that a five-year-old foreign girl successfully helped her mother give birth on a snowy night completely isolated from the outside world. After reading this news, I was really surprised, which made me think deeply: If the little girl can only cry and is afraid of unexpected situations, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it is extremely urgent to cultivate the ability to deal with unexpected events.
With this resilience, any unexpected event will minimize losses and get the best results. Therefore, cultivating children's resilience is not only the ability, but also the cultivation and improvement of psychological quality.
In a word, there is a huge space for a good family education to cultivate emotional intelligence factors. If our parents always focus on shaping their children's minds in the whole family education process, care about their children emotionally, respect their children in personality, educate their children in daily behavior norms, and let them understand the truth from high-level family education. Then, harmonious, happy and peaceful high-quality families will emerge like mushrooms after rain, and the improvement of the overall quality of the Chinese nation will not be far off.
Managers' EQ is more important than IQ.
[Author: Anonymous repost from: original hits on this site: 57 Update time: April 3, 2006 article entry: admin]
Romance of the Three Kingdoms is one of China's four classical novels. It is a true story of the Three Kingdoms, which expounds the wisdom of the times and contains rich strategic thoughts. Based on the analysis of the characters of the Three Kingdoms and the corresponding economic roles, the adaptation of Boiled Three Kingdoms deduces a popular economic story. As the manager of the General Political Department, Liu Bei has no outstanding marketing ability and needs to find a group of people to make up for his lack of ability. Zhang Fei is a leading sales executive. He often takes the lead and has a good record. Zhuge Liang, on the other hand, often relies on an ordinary team to mobilize the enthusiasm of employees through planning and strategy, give full play to their respective advantages and achieve the optimal combination. With the concerted efforts of such a team of Qi Xin, the business of Shu Guo Co., Ltd. is thriving.
As a leader, it is important to have self-knowledge, know yourself and yourself, be able to understand the changes in all aspects, make an overall and systematic evaluation in time, and then plan and allocate resources, so that the team will be full of vitality and vitality. These seem to explain:
Managers' EQ is often more important than IQ.
Generally speaking, the ability of managers mainly comes from emotional intelligence and IQ, and basically emotional intelligence is more important than IQ. Napoleon said that an officer's knowledge and quality should be a square, and an officer should have the courage to make decisions. The ability of managers caused by emotional intelligence is mainly reflected in three aspects:
One is communication skills.
People with high IQ are often weak in this respect. Because they are smart, they lack patience in communication. When a business leader is doing management, another ability is very important, and that is his influence. When a leader does practical management, his harmony with the enterprise environment and close relationship with the team are indispensable factors for success. It can also be said that it is a manifestation of communication skills.
The second is determination.
It is often difficult for people with high IQ to make decisions. Because they are smart, they have many choices. On balance, there is no perfect one, and in fact there will never be the best one, so I dare not make a decision easily. However, current management decisions often need to be made within a limited time and without information. As far as determination is concerned, people with high IQ have poor determination compared with their own abilities. They know a wide range of knowledge. When they encounter problems, they will think of various possibilities, and then they will begin to evaluate the scheme. After the evaluation, they found that the risk was great, so a lawyer can't be an entrepreneur. Here is a very profound practical case. Si Tong Li Fang successfully acquired Huayuan, but if the principal had studied M&A's MBA theory before the acquisition, he might dare to do so again. At that time, this kind of M&A can be said to have basically accounted for all the top ten reasons for the failure of M&A in the classic analysis of MBA. At present, many theoretical models issued by the research institute always need many parameters to invest time. Not enough parameters, but in fact, practice does not need road theoretical models and parameters, and it is easier to succeed by doing things with common sense. Perhaps this is what the ancients said: "It is better to believe in books than to have no books"!
The third is willpower.
People with high IQ have many choices, so they often don't have enough persistence. Give up when you encounter setbacks, and you can only go all the way to darkness. It can be said that ignorance is fearless, but it is easier to succeed. Chi Yang, general manager of Saite Shopping Center of Saite Group Co., Ltd. put it well, "It is very important to do business in China: managers must be healthy and strong-willed, otherwise they can't carry it. Just as Zhidong said, "Willpower and endurance test physical strength, but the manager is still very lonely, and many things can't be said to family, friends and investors, so he must be optimistic and confident like Superman, even if he is frustrated repeatedly, and he is not so easy to get tired, disappointed and relaxed. "
Managers also need a quotient, called adversity quotient or crisis quotient, or adversity quotient (AQ) for short. The ability of managers to find solutions in adversity is very important. How much a person can achieve often depends on his adversity quotient. The same is true for enterprises, such as Lenovo and TCL, which are striving for internationalization. One of the key points is how big the adversity quotient is when the bosses of these two enterprises take the lead in doing something themselves.
Of course, for a leader, it is not enough to have emotional intelligence and IQ, but also many other abilities and quotients. One of the hardest things to do is to remain flexible.

Successful businessmen: EQ is more important than IQ.
1 Building Author: 222. 185.48. * * Release date: March, 2005-116:12: 52 Everyone wants to be a promising and sought-after talent, and to achieve this goal, except. It can be predicted that the competition in the future workplace is not only the competition of IQ, but also the competition of EQ and adversity IQ. The survival and development of individuals in society must be optimized by combining their IQ, EQ and AQ.
It's hard to strike while the iron is hot.
IQ refers to the standard to measure the performance of intelligence testers. Intelligence has always been a controversial word, which can be used to refer to: thinking ability, general intelligence, ability to learn from experience or respond appropriately to new situations, abstract reasoning, ability to understand joints and make judgments, and so on. Generally speaking, people often associate IQ with academic education and vocational skills, such as diplomas and vocational qualification certificates. A person with high IQ must be a person with excellent business skills and great ability. The new professional structure puts forward new requirements for the quality of talents. What kind of ability structure does the top occupation need in the future?
-Have a wide range of professional skills. After China's entry into WTO, the society will need more talents in computer development and application, product marketing, pipeline engineering and electronic engineering. People who don't have excellent skills or can only talk on paper will inevitably be eliminated by market competition. Among them, the ability of numbers and calculation is not necessary for science and engineering, and most talents should have it after China's entry into WTO. The coordination between departments and the smooth connection of company operations are inseparable from numbers and calculations. Understand and maintain various systems, including computer systems, product sales, and even pipeline maintenance systems.
-Have a rich imagination. It is a skill that all white-collar workers need. Imagination is conducive to the collection and acquisition of a wide range of information and knowledge: imagination can also broaden the horizons of thinking methods and observation, in other words, imagination can promote creativity and innovation to a certain extent. Can widely collect information and understand them, and use them to guide the company to the future.
-be innovative. It can make the company run smoothly to obtain long-term high profits. Free the company from the dilemma that it can only predict the next financial report at present.
-Strong organizational skills. Nowadays, many organizational abilities that are considered to be possessed by a few leaders will become the focus of employee selection after China's entry into WTO. For example, setting up workflow, formulating marketing policies, uniformly allocating financial and material resources, and coordinating the assignment of tasks all require high-standard organizational planning ability. To give full play to people's initiative, we should not be limited to the traditional mode of step by step. Organizational ability is very important, and many departments need to organize or reorganize in many aspects such as material supply, working procedures, trade and financial opportunities.
-Have the ability to persuade others. Persuasion and communication skills are language skills, people who know how to express information and ideas and can listen. Communication between companies requires employees to be able to cope with more and more interpersonal relationships and have higher and higher lobbying ability. At the same time, in a fast-paced work environment, internal communication is more important. Although time is precious, there is no motive force and source for development without communication. Today, an effective staff member should be good at introducing his own information to others and clarifying his own ideas so that people can understand and support a particular point of view.
-have the ability to integrate arts and sciences. The integration of arts and sciences requires employees to learn to use their personal talents to improve their work experience, and the integration of various knowledge can improve work efficiency. Combining the accumulated educational experience of liberal arts with the professional skills of science will be the most valuable learning direction for white-collar workers tomorrow.
Success in the workplace depends on IQ of 20% and EQ of 80%.
Today, we begin to realize that emotion plays an important role in human intelligence. Just like the definition in the dictionary, "a person has the ability to adapt to some new environments and find ways to solve all kinds of difficulties he encounters." Emotion dominates intelligence. In this respect, the role of emotion is probably greater than the mathematical logic that people have admired for decades. Some researchers believe that IQ only accounts for 20% of personal success in the workplace. The study of some students in Harvard University proves that the success rate of those students who scored the best in exams or IQ tests is not higher than that of those students who didn't look so outstanding at that time. Some researchers say that this famous IQ only plays a role of 20% in personal success. What does the other 80% depend on? It depends on the social environment, opportunities, especially the part of intelligence that is not considered in the standard test-emotional intelligence.
Salovi, a psychologist at Yale University, first put forward the term "emotional intelligence". He believes that EQ is very important for the development and success of personal career. His definition of EQ should be viewed from five aspects: 1. Being able to fully understand one's emotions, having the basic ability and psychological intuition to understand oneself, is exactly what psychoanalysts call a "dedicated self". 2. Self-motivation, which is the ability to concentrate their emotions. 3. Control your feelings, which is the ability to adapt your sensibility to various situations. 4. Emotional homing, or perception of others' emotions, leads to altruism. Mastering interpersonal relationships and having the ability to communicate with others is a special ability to master one's own emotions.
IQ shows a person's ability to do things, while EQ reflects a person's performance as a person. In the future society, company employees should not only be able to do things, but also be human. People with high emotional intelligence speak well, do well and think quickly. "Everyone loves them." In addition to having a high IQ, job seekers should also use the following EQs. The first is the sense of competition and cooperation. If individuals do not have a strong sense of competition (or survival), it is difficult to stand on their feet, but blindly emphasizing competition may also go to the opposite side. College students should realize that cooperation is the first, and the purpose of competition is only for better cooperation. The second is image consciousness. The personal image of employees represents the overall image of the enterprise to a great extent. The most basic and effective way to create a good corporate image is to carry out public relations for all employees, requiring every employee to strive to create a good corporate image. The third is the sense of role transformation. Most enterprises believe that the slow role change is an important factor affecting the smooth employment of college students. Today's enterprises can be said to be "a radish and a pit". When recruiting employees, enterprises need employees to quickly adapt to the working environment, enter a good working state, and create benefits for enterprises. If you wait a year and a half to get into the state, I am afraid that "patient" enterprises will lose interest in him. The fourth is professionalism. It is true that today's society is a society with frequent flow of talents, and we can no longer engage in only one occupation all our lives like our parents. However, professionalism is always necessary no matter how the job changes. Therefore, if college students can meet the professional requirements of enterprises and have a clear understanding of this, they will also greatly increase their chances of successful employment. The fifth is the awareness of learning. The information in modern society is changing rapidly, especially in the future era of knowledge economy. Correspondingly, enterprises will also require employees to have a broad mind, a broad vision and an open mind to face foreign things.
There must be a lot of AQ to turn defeat into victory
AQ (adversity quotient) adversity IQ measures a person's ability to cope with setbacks and adversity. People with low AQ tend to feel confused and stop. People with higher AQ have become or are becoming leaders in the crowd. Just like IQ, AQ can be not only measured, but also improved in various ways. AQ theory is considered as a "revolutionary theory". Hewlett-Packard, Boeing, FedEx and other "companies that people want to work for most" and "most respected companies" all use AQ theory for internal training and external recruitment.
The president of a manufacturing company was told that the company made mistakes in every bank loan, and the bank said that they could not repay the loan or pay the employees. Soon, all the teams, including the company's five top salesmen, jumped ship, causing huge losses. What's more, his elderly parents are still using his bank check, so he has to sit next to his 7 1 year-old father and listen to the people in the bank carefully explain how his company's financial situation collapsed completely within 36 hours. When he got home, he told his wife that it would take several hours to find a solution before his career was destroyed. "Oh, that's your problem. I'm going skiing. " Then she left and ended their marriage. Difficulties came one after another, which were beyond his control and would definitely affect all aspects of his life. However, his positive personality survived the bullet attack. He called personal friends to borrow money, and called team members to make an "escape strategy" so that they could pay off their debts and rebuild the company. Thanks to this "restriction strategy", his company has now made unprecedented profits.
It is easy to regret in a crisis. The following methods can make you change this way of thinking and look forward:
The first is to raise the goal. Many people are surprised to find that they can't achieve their goals because their main goals are too small and vague, which makes them lose their motivation. If your main goal can't stimulate your imagination, then the realization of the goal will be in the foreseeable future. Therefore, what really motivates you to make progress is to set a grand and specific goal.
The second is to leave the comfort zone. Constantly seek challenges, motivate yourself, beware of yourself, and don't lie in the comfort zone. The comfort zone should be just a haven, not a bed of roses. It's just a place where you deliberately relax and recover before meeting the next challenge.
The third is to grasp emotions. When people are happy, their bodies will undergo wonderful changes, thus gaining new motivation and strength. However, don't always want to have fun outside yourself. What makes you happy is not elsewhere, but on you. So, find out your high emotional period to constantly motivate yourself.
The fourth is to strengthen rehearsal. Rehearse a battle that is more complicated than the situation you have to face. If you have a difficult job and you are hesitant, you might as well choose a more difficult one in advance. What does life challenge you? You can definitely use it to challenge yourself. In this way, you can open up a road to success by yourself. The true meaning of success is: the harder you are to yourself, the more tolerant life will be to you; The more tolerant you are to yourself, the harsher life will be to you.
The fifth is to go to crisis. Crisis can inspire us to do our best. Ignoring this phenomenon, we often foolishly create a comfortable life and try to design an increasingly relaxed lifestyle to make our life calm. Of course, we don't have to wait for the crisis or tragedy, and challenging ourselves from the heart is the source of our life.
The sixth is to encounter fear. The most secret experience in the world is that after overcoming fear, something safe and beneficial will happen. Even overcoming a little fear will enhance your confidence in creating your own life ability. If you try to escape from fear, they will run after you like a mad dog. At this point, the most terrible thing is to close your eyes and pretend not to exist.
