What Future Does Natalie Fratto Say IQ and EQ Will Not Prepare Us for?

In her TED Talks Daily talk on adaptability, investor Natalie Fratto says we are entering a future in which IQ and EQ both matter much less than how fast a person can adapt. She points to three habits she uses with founders: asking what-if questions, actively unlearning, and choosing exploration over exploitation. She uses Destin Sandlin's backwards bicycle, which took Sandlin eight months to ride, as proof that a person can unlearn an old skill. Fratto says those drills put you in the driver's seat so that the next big change finds you already practicing. Her name for the skill is an adaptability quotient, or AQ.
