People with high EQ are typically more empathetic, correlated with high abilities in these areas: • Perceiving complex emotional states in others • Managing these emotions in themselves and others • Using emotions (including their own) to facilitate conversations Thus, roles that involve group dynamics, coordination, or empathy (e.g., project management, leadership, sales, marketing) are best suited for people with high EQ. (Note that IQ and EQ are independent traits, meaning the same person could have any combination of high or low IQ and EQ.)
