Let’s Reflect About This
Strong human skills facilitate individuals to influence others positively, socialize easily, and overcome public anxiety. These skills are transferable and allow you to work well with other individuals and organizations.
The transition to the digital future of work is not by acquiring technological skills, or trying to retain those jobs that will inevitably become automated, but by building on those critical, emotional skills that make us human to cultivate a balanced and productive work-life and environment. As we recognize the qualities that humans hold over machines, we also need to recognize and develop the conditions for those desirable attributes to thrive.
