Skills for the 21st Century

Last week Google held an online conference exploring the skills young people need in the 21st Century. To support the conference, the Economist conducted a global survey of business leaders, teachers and students to discover the attributes most needed in the workplace. It won’t come as much of a surprise that the top five ‘21st Century Skills’ were:

- Problem Solving
- Team Working
- Communication
- Critical Thinking
- Creativity
