In the face of brand-new challenges this year, our workforce has had to rediscover what it means to be a successful employee. In a post-pandemic workplace, skills previously deemed secondary are now key to forming a more resilient, capable team.
The key to thriving in a workplace that is adapting to the pandemic, above all else, is adaptability. More than ever before, the ability to be flexible in the workplace is an invaluable skill. As the pandemic continues to bring new challenges, being able to match the going and adapt is a skill that will most benefit any employee – at any point of their career journey.
Adapting takes on many faces in the workplace. With Work from Home initiatives becoming the new norm, new modes of communication are coming into force.
In line with this is another skill that is now invaluable in the post-pandemic workplace: communication. While communication has always been ranked highly on the list of employable skills, it has now become even more vital. Being able to communicate across various platforms is tipped towards becoming a key skill needed in the workplace now that so many services have gone digital. Successful communication can look like many things, for instance high social media engagement and successful client interactions.
Finally, a skill that will take any employee to the next level is motivation. Being able to self-motivate in the face of Work-from-Home days is the way to ensure you and your organization keep moving towards success in the face of this game changing pandemic.
Ultimately these skills, while important before the 2020, are now tipped to become the keys to succeeding as the world moves forward in the face of unprecedented changes in the workforce.
