Professionally, I'm allowed to make the opposing side as uncomfortable as possible. That tends to be what happens when you sue them, so it's really unavoidable.


But that talent wouldn't be so useful if you had the luck to be born female and were young and happened to be interested in ... say... the military contractor arena or politics. In that scenario EQ would probably get you further than some with a higher IQ. A physician with a crummy bedside manner perhaps would be more successful as a brain surgeon than as an OB/GYN, etc.

If a person's IQ is pretty stable, do you think that may also be true of a person's EQ? There's probably a book in there somewhere too wink I'm honestly curious about the thoughts others might have about it though.
