Read the following passage and do as directed
Over the past few years, the world of work has been transformed as a result of digital and AI technologies. This requires today’s workforce to learn new skills to adapt themselves to the continually changing environment. What skills are necessary for students to be successful in competing with their counterparts in the global labor markets?
According to McKinsey Global Institute, communication skills have become increasingly important in both personal and professional life. From a business standpoint, good communication skills allow you to understand receptive information quickly, synthesize messages effectively and avoid unwanted conflicts. In 2016, the ability to communicate topped the list of the most sought-after soft skills among U.S. employers. What’s more, mental flexibility will help students to remain competitive in the market. This term not only refers to the ability to come up with original and unusual ideas, but also implies that learning is an ongoing process. For example, what if your key volunteer for a charity event gets sick? With cognitive flexibility, you will be able to consider all the options: either calling a backup volunteer or adjusting the event with the staff you currently have. Finally, digital competence plays an important role in building your confidence in the workplace as technology advances. Employment projections show that most newly emerging jobs will require digital skills. If you work as a content creator, you may use online platforms to make entertaining or educational material that caters to the interests of a specific audience.
