sandsys Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 I know many smart people. Some are members of Mensa indicating they are truly intelligent. Yet, one of them is disliked among our community. He has NO common sense so does some really stupid things. He has no clue as to why he is no longer invited to events.

When I was a watch section supervisor I did not need to know how to do the job at every desk I supervised, I just needed to know how to ask the right questions to suss out the info we needed for the mission.

jamescapes Posted September 10 Report Share Posted September 10 Great insights in this article. I especially like how it emphasizes qualities like being able to change one's mind, working well with others, and finding joy in life - not just having a high IQ or educational degrees. Those soft skills and attitudes are so important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
