14. WORLD BANK Says
“The workers of the future will recognize that
their success does not lie in their ability to learn
a skill (writing software, writing legal briefs,
reading x-rays, providing technical support, etc)
and then apply it repeatedly to pre-defined
problems.
Instead, success will be in their ability to use
creativity and innovation to solve unique
problems, forge new frontiers, invent killer
products and quickly adjust to changing market
demands and economic forces “
