-: The things that organizations
are preferencing as the top skillset
that those incoming graduates or new employees will bring
is really the ability to have challenging conversations,
understand cultural humility, and cultural diversity,
and understanding of self,
and how self impacts every other interaction
in that workspace.
Because those are the environments,
those are the skills,
that are allowing organizations to retain people,
because people feel like they can be,
and be everything that they are,
but then also do their work,
because if they're recognized for everything
they're bringing into a space,
they can then be the most successful,
and not worry about if this thing
is hanging off to the side.
It's engaged as part of my work, it's part of my community,
it's helping me thrive in this space.
And so for me, thinking about data,
thinking about what I know
of working with different recruiters,
that is the top skill,
and I think it will continue to be the top skill,
or top mindset,
going into the world of work, employment, engagement,
because I think we want to be parts of environments
where we belong.
And so I think when we have that foundational level,
we get to be successful.
