I’ve been thinking about this topic recently. One question that comes to mind: How much of Good Judgement do you think is explained by g/IQ? My quick guess is that they are heavily correlated.
My impression is that people with “good judgement” match closely with the people that hedge funds really want to hire as analysts, or who make strong executives of product managers.
Yeah my quick guess is that (as for many complex skills) g is very helpful, but that it’s very possible to be high g without being very good at the thing I’m pointing at (partially because feedback loops are poor, so people haven’t necessarily has a good training signal for improving).
