How could the need for such skills outpace a company’s own human resources? What can businesses do to help their employees maintain a competitive edge in today’s increasingly demanding work force?
Why do you think men tend to lack interpersonal skills while women tend to lack technical skills? How does a person’s skill level affect his or her career choices, as well as his or her career options? Do you think a correlation exists between a person’s education level and his or her skill level? Why or why not?
