Ten Essential Skills Required for the Future Work Force

Cognitive Load Management: It means the ability to discriminate and filter information for importance, and to understand how to maximize cognitive functioning using a variety of techniques. Organizations and workers in the future should be able to turn the massive amounts of data into an advantage if they learn to effectively filter and focus on what is important. They will need to come up with new techniques to deal with the problem of cognitive overload.

Virtual Collaboration: It is ability to work productively, drive engagement, and demonstrate presence as a member of a virtual team. Connective technologies will make it easier than ever to work, share ideas and be productive despite physical separation, but the virtual work environment also demands a new set of competencies. A society that offers “ambient sociability” can help overcome isolation that comes from lack of access to a central and social workplace.
