These 5 Talents Will Give You a Disproportionate Advantage

More than 21 million job advertisements from around the world were evaluated by learning firm and training program supplier Pearson. It discovered five "power abilities" that are currently driving both the global economy and individual careers.

These 5 Talents Will Give You a Disproportionate Advantage

The abilities included in Pearson's Skills Outlook are not technical. Instead, the skills that are most in demand are teamwork, leadership, customer focus, and communication.

Pearson's predictive AI modeling engine predicts that some of these abilities will still be in demand in 2026. The findings show that teamwork and customer focus will still be in high demand. But other soft skills like self-learning, achievement focus, and cultural and social intelligence are joining them as well.

"Swift investment is required, as both businesses and employees need a solid foundation of human capabilities to succeed. Non-technical skills, such as the capacity to learn and cultural and social intelligence, are becoming increasingly crucial as new technologies are adopted, according to Dr. Richard George, vice president of Pearson for data science in workforce skills.

According to the Pearson study, it will continue to be difficult to locate workers who possess these five abilities because demand will only increase.

The prospect of a recession in nations like the United States and Australia is expected to have an impact on Southeast Asian nations like Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia. According to studies, this will increase the burden on neighborhood companies and employees.

Businesses will prioritize these human abilities and look for personnel who can remain versatile and relevant during this period of economic unpredictability. The less prepared and adaptive will overtake those who fail to upskill, leading to a competitive employment market where only the strongest will survive and prosper.

Pearson recommended that businesses train their present staff for these human qualities rather than looking for the ideal candidate. According to a World Economic Forum report, more than a billion people would need to reskill by 2030 in order to stay current in their fields and meet the changing needs of the workforce.

The companies who understand this and make an investment in assisting people in developing transferable and flexible skills will succeed in our rapidly changing global environment, according to George.

Musk presents "Optimus" at Tesla's AI Day.

  Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveils "Optimus" at "AI Day" on Friday. A robot-based business would be worth more than a car-based business, the billionaire said. He wants to move beyond self-driving cars, which he has repeatedly promised. Onstage, a robot model waved to the audience. In the automaker's factory, a video showed the robot moving metal bars and watering plants. "Our goal is to make a useful humanoid robot as soon as possible," Musk said. "Optimus needs a lot of work to be effective." Musk said humanoid robots "lack a brain" because they can't travel the world independently. He also said they're expensive and rare. Optimus would be mass-produced in the millions and cost less than $20,000, he said. Musk expected to discuss Tesla's self-driving car technology. In May, the CEO said the world's most valuable car company would be "worthless" without self-driving cars. The company faces regulatory and techno...

Hackers from North Korea are stealing NFTs using almost 500 different phishing domains.

  The cybercriminals established dummy websites that posed as legitimate NFT marketplaces, NFT projects, and even a DeFi platform. There have been reports that hackers with ties to North Korea's Lazarus Group are behind a massive phishing campaign aimed at investors in nonfungible tokens (NFTs). This campaign is said to have used nearly 500 phishing domains to trick victims. SlowMist, a blockchain security company, published a report on December 24 revealing the strategies that North Korean Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups have used to separate NFT investors from their NFTs. These strategies include the use of decoy websites that are disguised as a variety of different NFT-related platforms and projects. Some examples of these fake websites include a website that pretends to be a project associated with the World Cup, as well as websites that impersonate well-known NFT marketplaces like OpenSea, X2Y2, and Rarible. Another example of one of these fake websites is a website th...

By 2030, the GCC economies are expected to receive $15 billion annually from the metaverse.

According to the most recent report from Strategy& Middle East, a member of the PwC network, the potential contribution of the metaverse to the GCC economies may be roughly US$15 billion yearly by 2030, of which $7.6 billion would be in Saudi Arabia and $3.3 billion in the UAE. The metaverse is still in its early stages, yet change is happening quickly. Companies in the GCC should move right away to take advantage of this chance. According to Tony G. Karam, Partner at Strategy & Middle East, by 2030, the metaverse will contribute $15 billion yearly to the economies of the GCC. The forecasts evaluated new metaverse applications like content production, commerce, and other activities as well as growth in the underlying platforms, hardware, and software. The metaverse's charm lies in the fact that it is neither a location nor a tool. Instead, it represents the most recent development in human/computer interface technology, one that aims to produce a seamless, pervasive, immers...
