Basic Skills That Indian Industry Would Need In Next 5 Years
You need to upgrade yourself and your skills at every step to stay ahead and dream big in the industry. Especially in India, the scenario is changing very fast and the requirements of new skills are very essential in order to move on and stay put with the need of the day.
There are certain basic skills which are applicable to all industries in India and having each one of them would give the person a cutting edge over the peers at every point. There are a lot of organizations which aid in skill development in the country; they are both governmental as well as the non-governmental organization. Their basic purpose is to improve the skills of the people of India and improve the growth of the Indian industry.
Soft Skills
Acquiring soft skills such as body language, communication skills, public speaking skills, writing skills, and many such interpersonal skills fall under the category of soft-skills. Soft skills form a basic part of a lot of a lot of industries. When you appear for an interview it becomes really crucial for you as an individual to make the mark in that huge crowd. Even though one might be in the impression that the interview only begins as they enter the room of the interviewer and the questions are directed at him, in established organizations the interview begins as soon as you enter the workplace and sit with the pool of interviewees.
You are noticed right from the start, the way you behave, the way you interact and communicate with your peers and competitors and how you address your subordinates and so on. So to stand out in the crowd it is essential that you take the right judgment and ensure that your body language, tone, and posture everything is appropriate right from the start. This is something that a large part of the Indian workforce lacks in at this point.
Innovative Mind
An innovative mindset is another thing that can work wonders in the Indian industry in the next 5 years. There are a lot of new developments happening all across the country and it requires quite a number of innovative minds to speed up the process. So if one has an innovative mindset or at least has the ability to think freely, it will be of immense use in the near future and the demand for fresh ideas is increasing by the day. One has to read, observe and put the ideas into action in order to be able to get the winning edge over peers. There are a lot of initiatives being taken by different organizations across the country to make sure more and more people with new ideas come to the forefront and make their ideas known to the world and make a make in the industries of the world. Innovation is the key to the growth of all industries and businesses and now the scenario is like there are a lot of ideas but now many of them can make it to the end. So the innovation needs to be such that it is foolproof and adds some value to the market standards.
Knowledge of Programming Languages and Problem-Solving
As the IT industry is growing far and wide it becomes very important to stay up with the need of the day. To be able to make a mark and stay ahead of others, one has to be comfortable in working with multiple programming languages which these days do not limit to Java or C++. There are a number of other programming languages which we are not so well acquainted with and which we need to inculcate in us. This can be done in various ways. It could be by working on the programme first hand or even by taking up foreign online courses available at large these days. But upgrading oneself and leaving the current and the newest forms of programming languages is a must to stay up with the growing and the changing society.
Time is moving really fast for the Indian industries and to stay up with the world it is important to make new innovations and ensure the problems are taken care of tactfully and easily. Hence people need to work on innovative ways of solving issues; the problem-solving abilities of the industry are also a deciding factor for its growth. One has to think of ways as to how a problem can be solved easily and effectively within a short span of time to optimize the work.
Project Management Skills
This is again a very important skill for the Indian industry at present. Project managers should have skills enough to gauge the requirement of any particular project they are handling. They should also be a good judge of the people working under them and their capabilities and knowledge so that they can assign the right job to the right person at the right time and be able to make the project a success and ensure that the work is optimized with the available workforce. A project manager has to be observant and decisive about the abilities of the employees working under them and assign jobs diligently.
Awareness of latest developments
The awareness of latest developments is very essential to ensure that the industry is not doing any work that has already been done previously. Rather it should focus on something that is new and something that requires new ideas. Especially in case of quality assurance, it is only possible to keep up with the quality standards if one is available of the latest quality standard protocols and also understand the quality requirements of the clients they are working for. It also becomes easy to decide on the protocol and the method to be able to meet the quality standards at all time and make sure there is no compromise with quality. Awareness of the latest developments and current affairs has been an essential skill before as it is now.
