Management Skills
Some technically brilliant professionals stall while others, with less knowledge, move ahead. The difference usually lies in a handful of skills that nobody teaches in an orderly way: knowing what you want, sustaining effort, learning fast, explaining yourself, understanding others, leading, negotiating and managing the two resources that are never in surplus: time and money.
