Rebecca’s Answer

I work at a large corporate company and my team is responsible for supporting others in accomplishing their goals. A large part of my job consists of helping others identify problems in their process, or areas for improvement, as well as formulating and implementing a solution. Listening skills, being able to communicate effectively verbally and in writing, both in person and now virtually are all critical skills to the business world.

Bryan’s Answer

While each industry has skills that may be specific to that industry, below are some characteristics / skills that I have found apply across most if not all successful businesses:

1. Time Management / Prioritization: There is often more work that could be done that time allows, successful people are able to identify the most important / high impact work and they get those done first.

2. Communication Skills (verbal, written, non-verbal): The ability to effectively communicate with others - including people of varying backgrounds, personalities, etc.

3. Adaptability: ability to overcome change / adversity

4. Collaboration / Teamwork: ability to work with others - particularly people who are different than you

5. Hard Work: be willing to put in extra effort - never stop learning!

Simeon’s Answer

Some of the skills that we have to exercise on a daily basis as auditors is an attention to detail and systems-level thinking. For our job, we have to develop an understanding of how a business prevents risks and if those means are actually successful. We also have to think critically about if our testing is sufficient to demonstrate that the significant risks have been prevented or mitigated.
