5.21.22 Accenture’s Global CEO on the Most Important Skill(s) for Job Seekers Today
Dear Students,

 

The HBR article below needs no introduction: Julie Sweet, Global CEO of Accenture’s 700,000 employees, shares what she views is the most important competency for new hires today: “The ability to learn”, or “learning agility.” Additional insights abound in this interview, as well, including Sweets’ views on the Metaverse and a concept she describes as “TQ” or “technology quotient.”

 

It’s a valuable read for both you and anyone contemplating work within any premier global organization, whether or not in the consulting realm (and just about anywhere else, too).
