The Value of EQ
When it comes to leading companies and attracting the best talent you can find, we often think of someone with a high IQ as the most desirable candidate.

In this episode of the Can You Hear Me? Podcast, co-hosts Eileen Rochford and Rob Johnson welcome veteran communications executive Rich Jernstedt to the program to discuss ‘The Value of EQ’.
