What are the key ingredients for a satisfying and highly paid job?

In a recent study, McKinsey looked at the key skills in greater detail:

• less manual but more digital and social skills
• ability to continually adapt to new ways of working and occupations
• add value beyond automated and intelligent systems

However, at least equally important to skills is our mindset:

• Are we embracing digital changes?
• Can we effectively lead ourself and others?
• Do we ask the right questions and can we actively listen to answers?

The result over 18000 people in terms of a score from 0 to 100 is 57: Higher education typically results in higher skills but not necessarily in a better mindset.

So the simple recipe for a satisfying and highly paid job is to stay curious, flexible and result oriented – stay healthy and confident … 🙂
