The Skill: Cognitive abilities and personality traits. Yep, these are skills!

This week, we’re diving into Season 1 Episode 9 of Let’s Talk About Skills, Baby where Kelly speaks with Denise Leaser, President of Great Biz Tools, about the skills and competencies-based platform they created to match job seekers with the jobs they were born to do. Denise explains that what they are not assessing is knowledge. Knowledge can always be learned and added in to supplement someone’s innate strengths.

Key Takeaway: Instead of trying to measure your knowledge, focus on your capabilities. This will help you find the opportunities that are truly meant for you.
