Up to two-thirds of occupations will be based on soft skills in 2030

By 2030, up to 66 percent of all workplaces will be professions requiring soft skills, as pointed out by Deloitte Acces Economics. Among the most desirable competencies, experts from the World Economic Forum mention, inter alia, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to teach yourself and others. As robotization continues, the demand for soft skills will increase. 

"In the future, they will be standardized and precisely classified, as well as disenchanting the stereotype that we are born with these skills because it is not true. Each of us can learn them, just as we learn to ride a bike," Dr. Mateusz Grzesiak, psychologist, consultant, and lecturer, judged.

According to the Salesforce report "The Future of Workforce Development" from 2019, among the skills sought by companies, the first three places were occupied by hard competencies, but the next ones are soft competencies. The DELab report, prepared by the University of Warsaw, states that the World Economic Forum named the skills of unconventional, critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving the key qualifications of employees in 2020.
