Smart students might get low grades because they have a low EQ.
People with low EQs have problems getting on with other people and dealing with difficult situations.
People with high EQs are open to new ideas and have positive attitudes towards life, and they are less likely to be troubled by internal problems.
4. What are “people skills”
5. How did the students change in Professor Mayer's study
6. Why is EQ important to a person
“People skills” refer to understanding and communication.
The people in Professor Mayer's study changed by being more willing to help people with difficulties and by showing a better understanding of the disabled students' feelings. They also became more positive about life and more willing to try new things.
EQ is important because being successful in life requires being able to get on well with others and being able to understand and react to situations in the best possible way.

1 Why does Professor Salovey say “it is IQ that gets you employed, but it is EQ that gets you promoted
Professor Salovey means that when doing interviews, interviewers often focus on your IQ level or how clever you are. But in real working situation, your boss focuses more on your EQ. i.e. “people skills”. Professor Salovey means EQ matters more than IQ in real working situation.
