The World Economic Forum’s Future of Job’s Report has identified 10 important skills that will be needed to succeed in your career by 2030.  To help support you in developing these critical skills, we’ve identified learning material that we’ll share with you regularly.

Fuel Curiosity

Curiosity can help businesses stay ahead of the competition by encouraging employees to think creatively, take calculated risks, and adapt to changing market conditions.  Life-long learning, on the other hand, is a culture of ongoing training, education, and skill-building that enables employees to stay up-to-date with the latest industry trends and best practices.

Life-long learning can help businesses maintain a competitive edge by ensuring that their employees have the knowledge and skills needed to adapt to new technologies and market demands.

To get you started, here are some questions to get you thinking about this topic:

  1. Can you give an example of a time when you had to be curious and ask questions to solve a problem or complete a task?
  2. What resources or tools do you use to further your learning and development?
  3. How do you prioritize learning and development in your daily work routine?
