Understanding the listing of skills
Imagine Your Potential: Assess Your Skills
This chapter helps you consider the skills you already have, the ones you will bring to the
workplace no matter which occupational area you choose. Specifically, you’ll read about ways to
anticipate the types of skills that will be needed in the future. At first glance, many of these skills
might not seem directly related to technology, but as you think about the way you’ll apply these
skills you will use your communication skills, for example, by using Microsoft Outlook to send
e-mail and write project proposals in Microsoft Word you will see that technology is the means
you use to contribute those skills to your workplace. You will use a series of exercises to identify
the skills you already possess in four key areas:

Transferable skills are skills you take with you from job to job that help frame your
preferences for the type of work you do, the way you work, and the way you relate to
those you work with.

Updatable skills are learned skills that require continuing knowledge and experience

Technical skills are related to specific technical tasks—for example, becoming proficient
with computer software or learning how to write a program, run manufacturing
equipment, or operate a vehicle.

Soft skills are the personal traits you bring to the job—such as honesty, work ethic, and
the ability to work well on a team.

Start at the Beginning: A Skills Inventory
No matter what your previous work experience might be, you are already using skills in
everything you do. Simply by virtue of your personality and the life experience you have
gathered so far, you have developed many skills you bring naturally to any job you have.

Transferable Skills:
Transferable skills are skills and abilities that go with you from role to role. They are not tied to a
particular job or industry area and include the great assets of experience you can offer to each
company where you interview.
Updatable Skills :
Updatable skills are skills that required some learning initially and that you can improve with
practice, experience, and further training. Perhaps you learned how to manage the reservations
system software at the travel agency where you worked last summer. Learning new software,
working with the computer, and understanding the travel reservation system are all examples of
skills that can be updated in various industry areas. Maybe you took an online course in Visual
Studio last year now you can update those skills and build on them so that you can demonstrate
your knowledge to a prospective employer.
Soft Skills:
Soft skills are intrinsic traits you bring to your role that enable you to work well with others,
accomplish your projects with integrity, and contribute to the overall success of your team or
department. Prospective employers look for evidence of a potential employee’s “soft skills” to
gauge whether she will ultimately be a helpful and supportive employee or a challenging one.
To help identify some of your soft skills, consider the following questions:
1. How good are you at following directions?
2. When you don’t know the next step in a process, what do you do?
3. How punctual are you?
4. Are you willing to learn new things?

Defining success
Let’s transition from our focus on building happiness to discussions about building success.
Everything in the happiness section will help you become successful. Creating and developing
those habits will lead to success. If you know the difference between Pleasure and Happiness,
you will not only be able to focus on what really makes you happy, you will be developing the
discipline to practice the things that will bring you long term success rather than short term
excitement. If you learn to take control of your life, you will be able to take ownership of your
success and make it happen despite the many obstacles you will encounter. If you build positive
relationships, those relationships will catapult you into multiple opportunities for short term wins
and long term success. Lastly, if you have a purpose in your life, you will recognize success with
every step that gets you closer to that purpose. Which leads us into our next concept, how do we
define success.
Concepts Found in Success Definitions:
When we take time to define success or happiness; contentment, satisfaction, and fulfillment
come up a lot. This is often contrary to our actions, where we are constantly chasing the next
opportunity or attempting to juggle as many activities as possible. It is part of the over the
horizon syndrome where we believe if we can just get past this next hill we will be content,
satisfied, and fulfilled. Writing our definition of success will help us recognize if we are looking
for Contentment so we can pause and appreciate it in our daily successes rather than waiting for
that one pinnacle moment.
We all want to matter and make a difference in the world so we often include Others in our
definitions of success. The concept of Others includes building positive relationships with
friends and family, contributing to the community, and helping make the world a better place.
Others gives us something to aim for that is bigger than ourselves.

The concept of Achievement which includes achieving or accomplishing goals was the third
most mentioned concept in the definitions of success. It was also mentioned often when we
examined the definitions of happiness. Achievement is part of success and provides something
objective and measurable we can identify. We are also happier if we are achieving.
“Success is peace of mind, which is a direct result of self atisfaction in knowing you made the
effort to do your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.” John Wooden
“Success is being content, happy and satisfied with who you are, and continuously striving and
challenging yourself to be the best person you can be.”
“To me, having a successful life is being able to do things independently for myself and not
always have someone there to do things for me. It's achieving my goals on my own terms and at
my own pace.” High school student with mobility impairment

Improving Skills with Time & Energy
Learning is a skill and it can be improved. Everyone has the opportunity to develop their
memory and learning ability. Identifying your own learning style and the methods that work for
you is key. The more you use your brain the better it will work. Learning something new always
takes commitment and self discipline as well as conscious practice. Your conception of what
learning is and your motivation to study will determine your success. You have to want to solve
a problem even if it is demanding. No learning methods or techniques will help if the motivation
to study is missing. Obstacles to learning usually have to do with one's attitudes and conception
of oneself as a learner and one's conception of learning, all of which have themselves been learnt.
You have to clarify for yourself why studying is worthwhile and what are you aiming for in your
studies. Learning only happens as a direct result of your own efforts.
Connect what you are trying to learn to knowledge you already have
Processing information and learning something new go hand in hand. New information will
remain in your memory if it is in some way significant to you. Learning gets easier the more
knowledge you have to which new information can be connected. You can develop your learning
skills through active and critical thinking, questioning assumptions, and applying knowledge
practically. How you organize new information is crucial to learning.
Tips for learning
 Make notes
The purpose of taking notes is to clarify what you are learning and support your memory and the
learning process. Making notes helps you to gain an overview of your what you are studying.
Taking relevant notes at lectures or from a book will be an invaluable help when revising for
exams.
 Study with others
Vardhan Consulting engineers

Take the plunge and discuss the subject with other students. Working through questions and
ideas together is both pleasant and useful from the perspective of learning.
 Keep a learning journal
The purpose of a learning journal is to help you organize your thoughts and observe your own
progress. It deepens and enriches the learning process and works as a tool for evaluating your
learning. Use the journal to write down your own insights, perceptions and questions as well as
things you need to find out or problems you need to solve. Write regularly. A journal will be
especially useful for seminar and thesis work, where you will have to organize information that
you have collected yourself.
1. Identify your learning style
Think back to a satisfying and pleasant work or study experience where you performed well.
Think about how you went about working, the type of work process that led to this successful
learning outcome.
Getting acquainted with books and other study materials.
Applying your own reading technique can help you get the most out of books and other reading
materials.. Skim through the text: have a look at the introduction, the table of contents, the
headings and the summary. The table of contents and headings will help you get an idea of the
scope of what you have to learn. The summary gives a short overview of the contents of the
book. Browse the book or other reading material and make notes of the questions that spring to
mind. Doing this will show you what you think the text is telling you .Then read the book slowly
and thoroughly. Examine the graphs and figures. Underline keywords and central points as it will
help you review and summaries. Think about how you can apply the information you are
learning from the book/other material and also how you can use it in relation to what you have
learnt previously.

Personal Sensitivity Analysis:
Decision making is an integral part of operations management. It may be useful to a decision
maker to have some indication of how sensitive an alternative choice might be to the changes in
one or more of those values. Unfortunately, it is not possible to explore all the possible
combinations of all the variables in a typical problem. In spite of this, there are some elements
that a decision maker can use to assess the sensitivity of assumption probabilities. One of the
tools useful for the analysis in some decision making problems is sensitivity analysis. It provides
a range of feasibility over which the choice of alternative remains the same.
Successful decision making consists of several steps, the fi rst and most important being
carefully defining the problem. Given that linear problems can be extensive and complex, they
are solved by using sophisticated computer methods. This paper will present software solutions
available for personal computers (Lindo, POM). For a manager taking the decision, however, a
solution model is only part of the answer. Sensitivity analysis offers a better understanding of the
problem, different effects of limitations and “what if“ questions. The insights obtained are
frequently much more valuable that a specific numerical answer. One of the advantages of linear
programming lies in the fact that it provides rich information on sensitivity analysis as a direct
part of the solution.
