IV. Lecturette (15 minutes)
Our knowledge about self and of our skills and ways of doing things are important
elements in choosing a career. When we know our interests and the skills we possess, we are
better able to indentify the kind of profession we want to pursue.
Personal skills are things we are good at―our strengths, abilities, and attributes.
4. Module 2 Page | 13
Knowledge refers to learning concepts, principles, and information regarding a
particular subject(s) by a person through books, media, encyclopedias, academic
institutions and other sources (Boulet, 2011).
(http://www.differencebetween.net/language/difference-between-knowledge-and-
skill/).
Skill refers to the ability of using that information and applying it in a context. In
other words, knowledge refers to theory and skill refers to successfully applying that
theory in practice and getting expected results.
For instance, a sales person armed with an MBA degree may have learned all the
principles of marketing and selling in his business school. Going forward, in his work he
would know more about his company in the arena of its product line, target market,
competitors, etc. All of the above is knowledge. When the individual transfers this
knowledge to create a successful sales strategy and pitch and work to achieve those sales
targets, is the sales person’s skill.
Trial and error methods are a great way of adding to your skills. Sometimes,
certain skills are inherent in a person. For instance, some people are born carpenters.
But skills can take a person only to a certain level. To move ahead, it is necessary that a
person has the requisite knowledge as well. For instance, while a person may have a
good hand in carpentry, acquiring an engineering degree can do wonders for the
person’s skills. In the same manner, some people may have theoretical knowledge but
may just not be able to use it while performing a task.
Knowledge is the things we know while skill is the ability to apply what we know.
Each of us possesses different skills. Each of us vary in the strengths and
weaknesses that we possess. This makes us unique. Because we are unique, we differ in
the way we do things. Since no two individuals are the same, we need to complement
each other. In like manner, different professions require different skill sets and abilities.
Skills are divided according to the following categories (Santa Maria, 2006):
People Skills―work with, help, entertain, service, or influence the actions or thinking of
people.
Data Skills―handle details, facts, numbers, records or files in a quick and accurate way.
Thing Skills―operate, maintain, or build machinery or regulate or process equipment;
understand and work with physical, chemical, or biological functions.
5. Module 2 Page | 14
Idea Skills―solve abstract problems and express thoughts or feelings in a creative or
ingenious way.
Skills can also be categorized as employability skills or skills you need for a job.
(http://www.skillsyouneed.com/general/employability-skills.html). These are:
Interpersonal Skills―these are important when seeking employment and may be the
single most important factor for many recruiters.
Communication Skills―Employers look for people who communicate well both
verbally and in writing.
Critical Thinking Skills―The ability to solve problems and make decisions can be a
huge asset to your employer and these are therefore desirable skills to develop.
Personal Development―This is all about having the right attitude towards work and
the organization you work for. Employers look for people who are keen to develop and
learn.
Presentation Skills―Presenting information clearly and effectively is a key skill in the
workplace and presentation skills are required in almost every modern employment
area.
Leadership Skills―Leadership is the ability to influence others toward the achievement
of a goal.
Numeracy or Number Skills―Numeracy involves an understanding of numerical data,
statistics and graphs, and is also part of making decisions and reasoning.
Information Technology Skills―Most people need some information techmology (IT)
skills to find work today. Acquiring basic IT skills and being familiar with using a
computer may open up a wide range of employment opportunities and increase your
marketability in the workplace.
