Summary

This quote emphasizes that practical intelligence, or the ability to apply knowledge and skills in real-life situations, is a stronger predictor of job success than traditional IQ tests (G). The speaker claims that they have conducted numerous studies showing that practical intelligence is more closely aligned with one's ability to succeed in a work environment compared to IQ. This suggests that the ability to practically apply knowledge and skills is of greater importance in job performance than solely relying on cognitive abilities measured by IQ.
