A 2013 study (State of St. Louis Workforce) found that a lack of communication skills and poor work ethic, along with a lack of critical thinking and problem solving skills, were the biggest shortcomings of job applicants – far outpacing a lack of technical skills such as math and computer.

How will you need to adjust your communication techniques to communicate across generations?
