According to me, both EQ & IQ is necessary to do any job. Suppose there is a task. Given by boss and we do this job with our team. There is a need of both EQ AND IQ to complete the job well. Because it needs both the solving ability and emotional support so I think that both are necessary, thank you.

EQ i.e. Emotion Quotient means ability to deal emotionally whereas IQ i.e.Intelligence Quotient means dealing with the intelligence. Both EQ and IQ go hand in hand. If a person possess both of these qualities then his life would surely be a success. Lack of any one of them hampers the success to some extent. So, I think both are equally important and are complementary to each other. So, yeah both are important.

I think both IQ and EQ are quintessential for our personality. Higher IQ enables us to think more logically and Scientifically while higher EQ enables us more empathetic and helps us to read other's mind.
It's a common perception that higher IQ tends to lower sympathy to others but this is a myth. A person may have both the higher IQ as well as higher EQ subsequently. For eg. Einstein was terrified about the human loss when US dropped the nuclear weapon in Japan. The corporate world is concern high IQ level is must. But at the same time, we can not neglect EQ good emotional quotient is also must for happier family life.

According to me, to be successful both EQ and IQ are equally important. Depending on the situation we should use our EQ and IQ. For eg- in business when we are taking decisions we should use our IQ, but when we are meeting our partners then we should use our EQ to maintain cordial relations with them. Without EQ we cannot understand ourselves and others also, we cannot maintain friendly relations, we cannot share our thoughts and knowledge with others i.e. a person without EQ is one who is isolated, who is not self-confident, who is not self-aware and who is not happy. Without IQ, we cannot think logically, practically and accurately. IQ is needed for making accurate decisions quickly. IQ helps us to think whether we have made correct decision or not based on our EQ. Thus EQ makes us become socialized and IQ makes us become smart.

Hello, guys! what do I think is that both Eq and Iq have interrelated significance, I mean think about the situation, a person has good IQ but he is not emotionally calm and compose he can not pretty much handle the stressed situation be it exam or any regular activity then what good that IQ is gonna do for him. He is also not confident enough to go out and discuss the problems, he is an introvert, He is also not good at dealing with family problems because in the adverse situation he can not handle his stress level because he is not calm and composed. So, in a nutshell, if we want to make the best use of our IQ then we should be mentally and Emotionally calm and compose, there should be harmony between the both.

As per my point of view, EQ & IQ both are required in a successive personality in this world. Both are having various & different advantages for a working person to handle the different situations during the work. Any one has to work or take a decision using their IQ but keeping EQ to get success. Only EQ is not sufficient for anyone in their lives.

Well coming to my view, EQ and IQ both are required in the modern era because EQ makes happy and IQ is required in working area. Emotional intelligence or Emotional Quotient (EQ) is the ability to identify, assess, evaluate and control on emotions. IQ is the score obtained by standardized testing to assess intelligence of individuals.

Emotional quotient is all about control our emotion where ever there is a need, whether in the job, towards employee, parents or any older people. It acts like "The first impression is the last impression". We must have the ability to listen the thought and perception that delivers by an adult because they have lots of experience as they have already gone through our ages. So it's our responsibilities to go through the decisions taken by our parents or any adult. The same is applicable in job sector also. Don't over react. Our parents aim is to give us a good platform and it's our will to move forward to an extreme level which depends on our IQ level, how skilled we are, our performance in professional areas. STRONG EQ LEADS TO STRONG IQ.

Hi friends,
First of all, I appreaciate what you all guys thought, somehow I agree with your perceptions. I Want to add my view about IQand EQ. IQ (intelligence quotient) is very important to compete with today's world as it is a rational and logical approach. Today the scenerio is different there is a vast range of technology and business in which only logical thinking is not enough for survival you must be social and philantropic (love for mankind). EQ (emotional quotient) is also very important in its own percpective. If you are a successful person (having a good/high IQ) but a low EQ then you are not a successful person, you are lacking somewhere so there must be a balance between IQ and EQ which distinguish you from others. Be gregarious as EQ leads to life's knowledge not bookish knowledge.
