Case Studies: Navistar & Bellevue University's PowerSkills
Interactive Review of TWO FRAMEWORKS for Team Leaders to improve their skills as managers:
- Navistar’s Jhana Live—Team Leaders Workbook (Kirk Hallowell)
- Bellevue University’s 7 Critical Power Skills™ (Michelle Eppler)
As long ago as 2005, a skills gap among American workers has been documented in articles, briefs, and research papers.
In 2008, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) noted the following most critical skills needs (as cited by HR professionals) – in this order:
1. Adaptability 2. Critical Thinking/Problem Solving 3. Leadership 4. Professionalism/Work Ethic 5. Teamwork/Collaboration 6. IT Application Skill7. Creativity.
It’s interesting to note that among the top seven skills cited, only one is a technical skill. The gap in these skills has been documented repeatedly since.
