 IQ ensures your success in school
 EQ ensures your success in life
 Suppose you find out about a problem at your office. You
know the facts and the reason behind the failure. That is
your IQ
 When you use these to motivate your employees, that’s
your EQ.
 If you know the facts, but are unable to empathize with
your employees, berate and de motivate them, you have a
low EQ.
 When you try to convince someone by facts alone, it
shows your IQ, but when you appeal to his emotions and
reason together with the use of facts, that’s your EQ!
