Question:

Intelligence or personality?

Who will go further? The brilliant ones or the charismatic? Why is this so?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Intelligence as measure by IQ testing is the single best predictor of job performance. In a true market economy, this would tend to send smart people to the top of the labor heap. In highly stratified societies where how high you can rise depends on who you are and who you know, charisma may be more important.
