We all know that we need some degree of smarts to make it in the business world. The measure of this " smarts" is IQ. You were born with your IQ and it stays relatively the same throughout life. So it is pretty hard to become an Einstein if you were born with an average IQ. People often associate someone's IQ with his or her ability to be successful. While important to you, IQ becomes less important as you grow in your career. Actually, there are other ingredients that are important to ensure career or business success, which account for about 80% of adult success.

EQ is one of the key ingredients. Your EQ is really about soft skills. It means being able to relate to others and make things happen. According to Susan Dunn, the EQ coach, “The higher up you go in your career, the more EQ matters. Eventually you'll find yourself in a playing field where everyone has skills as good as yours, and then what makes you stand out? It's how you handle yourself and others , your leadership and communication skills and other emotional intelligence competencies （能力）. ” The great news about EQ is that you can improve it. Unlike IQ, you can work on different EQ competencies so that you can increase your EQ score.

But to succeed, combining a high EQ and IQ is not enough. You also need to think about your RQ. The term RQ was coined by Dr. Charles who found the most successful companies all have one thing in common - strong reputations or high RQs. But RQ is not just for companies. We as individuals can combine it with our IQ and EQ to ensure career success. To succeed you need to be known for something. You must stand out from countless （无数的） others with similar skills and experience. Like EQ, your RQ can be improved with personal work. Understanding, building and communicating your personal brand will help you increase your RQ and your ability to take control of your career.
