general rant

“Despite regular complaints about standards of literacy and numeracy, it is the so-called soft-skills that are at the top of the organisations list of concerns regarding the lack of skills of new employees joining from school, college or university. 66per cent of respondent organisations feel that new employees lack both communication/interpersonal skills and management/leadership skills (54%), yet these skills top the list as necessary for organisations to meet business requirements in the next two years”. (source: eGov Monitor)

No change there, then.
