As a Millenial in my first corporate leadership position, I agree with the 3 skills you outline above.

One skill that I’ve been working on is creative problem solving — and that gets incorporated as I lead, coach, communicate and inspire the group I am in charge of.

A book I found very helpful in developing this skill set was “Jack’s Notebook” by Gregg Fraley. It is written as a work of fiction, but with many “lessons” interwoven throughout. It was a fascinating and educational book.

I think creative problem solving, individually and as a team, is one of the most fundamental business skills there is, and the colleges don’t spend enough time teaching it. It’s important not only for business, but for navigating throughout life IMO.

Cheers,
