More EQ … Less IQ
“The workplace and workforce are going to change pretty
dramatically as we look forward. The entire concept of work is
going to become more flexible. The skills needed in the workforce
are going to be less about IQ and a little bit more about EQ,
because if you think about it, a lot of IQ knowledge is going to be
available at our fingertips through hand-held devices and the
computer and technologies that we have at our disposal.”
