Feeling in control over your life is crucial to success and
wellbeing.
Our world is changing - so fast, so furiously, so ferociously - that to
stand out you need to tap into your own resources and competences. Doing
so puts you firmly back into the driving seat of your own life, enabling
you to be happier, find and do work you love and have a true sense of
purpose. But what are the key competences that you need?
7 Skills for the Future sets the scene for seven new soft skills
that will propel you forward. Through a combination of scientific
research, no-nonsense advice, practical exercises and case studies, this
book shows you how to understand, develop and use:
- Adaptability - respond better to opportunities and change by being
flexible and agile
- Critical thinking - think smarter, more resourcefully, creatively
and collaboratively
- Empathy - nurture all your relationships by learning how to listen
and be present
- Integrity - trust, values and honesty are the name of the game now
as is authenticity
- Optimism - be the most positive person you know
- Being Proactive - respond rather than react and learn to reinvent
yourself
- Resilience - make mistakes, bounce back, learn from experience and
move on to the next challenge
By learning how to tap into these essential skills, and understanding
how to put them into practice each day of our lives, we can be happier,
more effective and abler to cope with change in an uncertain and
exciting future.
