Every role matters. Every person influences. That’s leadership.

Leadership isn’t a title—it’s how you show up, every day.

The 2025 World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report makes it clear: leadership isn’t just about your domain expertise. Leadership, Self-Awareness and Social Influence skills are identified as key competencies for the future of work. These aren’t technical skills. They’re human ones. And they signal a shift: in an era of constant change, the ability to lead—yourself, your work, your interactions—has become essential, no matter your title.

It's not just what you know — it's how you adapt, relate, and lead.

  • 60–70% of the top skills are personal or interpersonal (self-awareness, resilience, empathy, motivation, leadership).

  • Technical skills are still vital, especially in a digital economy, but they are not enough on their own.

While technical skills remain important, the most in-demand competencies are increasingly centered around self-management, leadership, and interpersonal abilities.

Self-awareness is everything. Without it, we’ll never grow, or improve. We’ll ignore our blind spots, overestimate our strengths, and ignore our weaknesses
— Gary Burnison - Korn Ferry

Why Self-Awareness Matters

Before you set out to improve anything, you must first increase your awareness of the way it is—because you can’t change what you don’t see.

When people are self-aware, they make better decisions, communicate more clearly, and adapt more effectively. They build stronger relationships, lead with authenticity, and create environments where others can thrive.
