I.Q. is important anyone who says otherwise is lying.

IQ is a nice bonus for sure. But there is a point where the law of diminishing returns begins to apply. After that sufficient point, you can't use it compensate for poor soft skills.

That diminished return threshold starts at 130.

IQ runs the workplace because it determines how fast you take in and process information.

It also affects learning speed so there's am IQ entry barrier to positions that require high levels of education.

Soft skills won't help if you can't keep up with your colleagues.

However, soft skills is also a highly cognitive process. EQ can't be separated from IQ.

Everything you said after 130 IQ is irrelevant. I don't think you realize how ridiculously high that is along with how useful it is to someone in the vast majority of professions vs the average worker in those professions.

Nah bro, believe me becoming a doctor is like trying to become a NASA astronaut, the competition to get into Med school is so fierce that some people end up taking their lives because the amount of work and hours needed to succeed in it so high. On top of that, the grades needed to get into the average med school is beyond crazy, you need to achieve like the best 2 percent of grades in your whole borough or county to even be considered as a candidate.

Even if I had the intelligence for becoming a Lawyer, I could never see myself defending a child molester or rapist in court even if they were just accused of their crimes and no concrete evidence had been given to prove that they were guilty of committing them. That's why they say in order to become a successful Lawyer you need to become some sort of sociopath, and sociopaths usually have higher IQs.

Sociopaths don't have better mental faculty than the norm; it's a myth.

You're mixing the level of intelligence needed to work in Burger King and the actual people that work in Burger King. Many environmental factors would explain it, but it is impossible to predict the IQ level of a random worker without personal, contextual background information.

People don't consider flipping burgers a good career choice. The average worker is 29 years old, and the fast-food industry has a turnover rate of 130-150%; this is approximately less than one year on average.

It is impossible to predict the life trajectory of both the people inside the 'Bell Curve' and the people that fall in the higher end (the exceptional ones), while you can effectively measure the potential of individuals below the average (people with serious mental disabilities). Many problems with the measurement of intelligence, but that's a topic for another day.

Your habits, character, temperament, and ability to think independently that allows you to behave rationally is more important than IQ because intelligence alone is not what determines if you will become successful or not.

What people need is to be brought up in the proper environment where they can develop a sound intellectual framework for making decisions and the ability to keep emotions from corroding the framework.

A stronger predictor of success is the attitude of a person. Researchers in Standford discovered that people with a 'growth mindset' had a much stronger likelihood for reaching success than the people with a 'fixed mindset' (they believe they cannot overcome their innate nature, and therefore limit their potential, and close the doors of many future possibilities).

Did you not see the chart I attached in my previous posts?

Average IQ of a lot of these high level professions is over 120.

You do realize the average IQ is 100 in the developed world.

Even average office workers have an IQ of 110.

I hope one day we can artificially make the whole world high IQ. To live and die dumb is such a tragedy.

Average IQ of office workers is 110?


Your chart is not anywhere near what most psychologists would accept. And what's more, you can't even analyze it. You're just regurgitating what you're reading on /pol. Do you know how high an IQ of 130 is? That's two standard deviations from the average of 100. Did you know that number is higher than what some legendary physicists were tested at, including arguably one of the most renowned after Einstein and Newton?


If you truly believe the average office worker has an IQ of 1110, then I have a bridge to sell you.

Tell me more about the bridge.

Believe whatever you want to. If you think that a huge chunk of the population having an IQ of 110 is absolutely ridiculous then what do you think of some countries with an avg IQ of 80?

Impossible?

Btw IQ levels were a lot lower back when Einstein was around. He'd be an average genius if he was here today but still over 130.

Average mathematicians and high level physicist have an IQ of over 140+

Just go to Princeton and test anyone with a receding hairline and you'll have your evidence.

You're telling on yourself sxb. You would know how ridiculous that position is if you were in the workforce and ever had to deal with middle-management or other office drones.

@GoldmanSachs if a country has an average IQ of 100, then 2.5% of the population has an IQ equal to or above 130. In a country as large as the US that translates to 8.1 million people with IQs equal to or above 130. There are only 1.1 million MDs in the entire US, so it is safe to assume that almost all of them have IQs above 125.

China has an average IQ of 105, this means it has 23 million people who are certified geniuses by Mensa's standards.

Lol sorry to break this to you but you don’t get promoted based on how intelligent you are.

Most jobs are given from recommendation or because they like you personally and they are more likely to like you if you are similar to them. In most businesses being a privileged cadan person serves a long way. My coworkers were mostly rich and came from affluent backgrounds, who’s families had contacts. One of the managers was a marketing manager for a big clothing brand despite only having a BA in business when she graduated. Don’t be silly and assume there is a meritocracy otherwise you will come back to us crying that life is not fair.

Except no one was talking about MDs. We are talking about generic office workers and administrators, perhaps the most common job in the Americas. The dysfunction and widespread incompetence is costing American companies massively.

Excess management is costing the US 3 trillion per year

The claim that these people possess an average IQ of 110 is looking quite uncontroversial, isn't it?
