Importance of this skill in
the workplace.
As the workforce continues to evolve, employers are placing a premium on people
with skills that will help secure their success in the future. But what exactly
are they looking for?
1. Adaptability
In a fast-changing work environment, no one can afford to stand still.
Technology is evolving, industries are shifting, and new market trends require
a quick response. Employers value candidates who can demonstrate an ability to
adapt to these changes.
“Employers want their people to be able to pivot to a new role or area
of responsibility as things change and to up-skill to remain on top of new
trends relevant to their job function or industry,” says Nick Deligiannis,
Managing Director of Hays in Australia & New Zealand.
2. Analytical thinking
Data is widely regarded as the ‘new gold’ due to the wealth of insights
it can reveal. It is helping to drive business decisions across almost every
industry, and while technology can crunch the numbers, it takes humans to
analyse it and extracts its value.
“Analytical thinking has become a highly sought-after skill,” says Mike
Dickson, Director NSW at Six Degrees Executive. “As every function seeks to
operate more efficiently and to drive return on investment, the ability to
analyse enables informed decision making.”
3. A proactive approach
In an era of automation, inherently ‘human’ skills are in hot demand.
While robots need to be programmed, humans can take their own initiative, and pro activity is now a highly sought-after skill.
Qamran Somjee, Practice Leader of Digital, Projects & Technology,
Davidson Technology, says a proactive approach is required as more
organisations become more ‘agile’- able to move quickly and easily.
“In order to be agile, companies need less leader-led employees
and are looking for staff who are proactive enough to contribute ideas and
resilient enough to accept the team’s feedback, even when it is negative.,” he
explains.
Thanks to digital technologies, consumers of today are empowered by
unprecedented access to information and are seeking swift, seamless, personalized service. As a result, more organisations are adopting a
human-centered design methodology to ensure the customer is at the center of
business processes, products and services.
5. Resilience
The pace of workplace change can present challenges and employers value
candidates who demonstrate resilience.
“The requirements of today’s workplace are more intense than ever
before,” says Andrea McDonald, Director of u&u Recruitment Partners. “Due
to the rise in technology, employees are rarely ‘off’, so the ability to manage
that pressure and work effectively is essential.”
McDonald adds that with rapid change comes the need to experiment with new directions. “In an environment where you’re constantly experimenting, you have to be comfortable with failure and able to get back up again. This is why resilience is so important.”
