The Future of Work Requires Non-Technical Expertise |
As
advanced technologies automate our world in more ubiquitous
ways, we naturally assume that technical skills will be in the
highest demand in the future job market.
But as revealed in a recent report from the World
Economic Forum (WEF), among many other studies, the rise of
ever-smarter machines demands a surge in the social and
emotional abilities machines cannot master.
Soft skills such as adaptability, creative
thinking, persuasion, relationship mastery, the ability to deal
with complexity, and time management
are increasingly valuable to companies as they
become more dynamic, interconnected, and flexible by necessity.
