What are the Top Skills Employees Must Focus to Perform the Best?

Employees aiming to perform at their best should focus on developing a combination of technical, soft, and adaptive skills. Here are a couple of top skills that employees should prioritize.

We are moving from physical to Digital to Phygital over the last few years. So, what has changed and what not? After the intervention and invention of technology like Chat GPT, AI & ML.

Whether you are just starting your career or educational path, or considering making a career change, it would be great to know which competencies in particular are AI-proof for the future.

These skills and domains will always need that human touch in order to be done well, as well as some of the associated learning pathways and careers that come out of the possession of such skills.

Some competencies are irreplaceable like:

  • EI (Emotional Intelligence)
  • Coaching & Mentoring
  • Design Thinking
  • Decision Making
  • Creativity
  • Empathy
  • Technology Management

There is an increasing debate insisting that technology like Chat GPT, AI, or “artificial intelligence” will eventually eradicate the majority of jobs and industries as we know them today.

According to an Oxford University study, all developed nations can expect to see job loss rates of up to 47% within the next 25 years.

The good news is that there is no need for alarm, especially if you understand which skills won’t be threatened by the future of work.

Leaders are successful if they are aware of the above skills and these skills are very much required for the employees and leaders to run a successful organization.

If employees focus on the above skills they will have long-term job satisfaction and they remain happy at the workplace.
