EQ is so critical to success that it accounts for 58 percent of performances in all types of jobs. It's the single biggest predictor of performance in the workplace and the strongest driver of leadership and personal excellence. The link between EQ and earnings is so direct that every point in EQ adds $1300 to an annual salary.

There is no connection between IQ and EQ; you simply can't predict EQ based on how smart someone is.
