When I ask my daughter what she wants to do when she grows up, she gives it a deep thought and when I prod her to answer quickly, she settles for ‘like you or dad’. I know that is not what she was really thinking. Deep down she is thinking of something creative and interesting. That got me wondering about what job she would settle for, after completing her education.
As per a World Economic Forum Report on the future of jobs and skills in the year 2030 – Interpersonal skills, higher-order cognitive skills, and systems skills are likely to be the most sought after by employers in the future.
Here’s are some interesting findings from the report.
65% of children entering primary school today will ultimately end up working in completely new job types.
How are we to tackle this in the current education system?
The jobs of the future aren’t all doctors and engineers but are pointing towards restaurant owners, immersive designers, aerospace engineers, in green construction, counsellors and care workers
Now India is a country with over 1000 different languages & dialects. But English is the language people converse in.
The role of the English language in career advancement is undeniable in this era of globalization. While speaking good English is not the only criteria when it comes to getting a job, its importance in the corporate world is widely recognized.
Living in Delhi my kids has access to a great school and speaks English well. But it got me thinking of so many others in cities across the country who may not be able to speak the language proficiently.
Various studies show that people who speak good English can generally earn between 25% and 35% more money than those who don’t speak the language. Good command of English is vital for engaging in discussions, taking part in meetings and answering questions, all of which are common scenarios in work situations.
