Mainly there are 6 types of skills which are listed below:

that we acquire throughout our education comes under academic skills.

everything is online. Following code of conduct and format is necessary to keep everything
organised. It consists of database management, email writing and many other skills.

being able to articulate our thoughts in a way so that another person can understand it properly.

5. Analytical Skills:

Analytical skills are soft skills that help you identify and solve complex problems. Some popular
analytical skills include critical thinking, data analysis, research and communication.
Demonstrating analytical skills on your resume and interviews can help you be a competitive
job candidate.

6. Team Work:
In business terms, teamwork is when a group of people collaborate to achieve a mutual goal.
This means that people within a group use their skills to overcome each other’s weaknesses and
achieve a goal which was otherwise not possible.
In addition to above skills there are interpersonal skills which we require while working in corporate
world. These are social skills, survival skills, collaborating skills, empathizing skills, conflict
management and resolution skills and giving constructive feedback, etc.

Some skills that i am literally good at and which i have analysed while pursuing this summary session are
1. Teamwork and cooperation (I believe they make an organisation successful).
2. I believe that I am a good learner and always likes to learn new things. 3. Good at
communicating.
4. Know how to operate or work on Excel, Word, PowerPoint.

The most important thing is that you should have the ability to prove that the skills you presented are the
thing you are really good at. Skills are things you should show to others. The six skills discussed above
are the skills that you can add to your resume. Do not overwrite your resume by adding unnecessary
skills like management, political, socialising, dealing with others, cooking etc, because they are not the
skills the company looks up to but, they are the skills that are helpful to you yourself and are important in
your life. Always be kind and polite to people you think are important and beneficial to you.

Summary Session 2:

DEFINING SUCCESS
The first thing is to know about your target what you want to do and then you need to start planning
for it, like how you are going to do it, how you will prepare, and then how much you will dedicate to
prepare for it. Whatever you are going to do in future you must have to work hard and do proper
preparation for it. As, without preparation you can't be successful in any field. You should be clear of your
skills.

Even if you are just going to apply for a job, you must have to be prepared, you must know the skills you
have, and you need to have a proper structured resume with you. This preparation will not only be helpful
in getting a job but also in exploring yourself and performing well in a job.

As there is a great saying “Follow your passion”, what it indicates is, do what suits you and what you can
do with full willingness and it satisfies you. Passion must be followed by two more P’s that is Purpose and
Practicality. You can only go ahead if you follow all the three P’s. This will create a sense of liking in you
for what you are doing and nobody can stop you. There is a need to do something different and you
should know why you are doing that like for fame, money etc, and that is what purpose is, Purpose needs
to be very strong, in order to succeed. You should be very practical about things, before following your
passion or doing something.

Now, taking a look at what success is? People are usually unable to define success and just want to
succeed. Success is just a single thing at a single point of time. One should have a single purpose only at
a time and the achievement of it would define your success. People try to do a lot of things when trying to
succeed and while doing so they lose their focus on the most important thing they need to do in order to
get success. For me the success would be to get a job, start earning and become self-dependent.
Everyone has a different definition of success; you define your own success. Don't let other people
define how you would be successful. Get your own definition of success by following your dreams.
Whatever you achieve in your life is not only because of your academics and qualifications, there should
also be a sense of willingness and self-support which matters a lot.

Characterize what is accomplishment in your life right now and begin to deal with it. Follow a legitimate
way to accomplish it. Devotion, practice and arrangement will assist you with making progress. Be
reliable in your endeavours
Summary Session 3:

In the previous session, it has been clear what skills are required in the corporate sector and what is
success all about, having passion and importance of purpose and practicality. This session is all about
how to improve your skills, what needs to be done, how to achieve what we want.

In order to achieve something, there is a need to remove all the negative energy from yourself, anything
in you that is creating barriers between you and your success and it should be your first target. There
are many people who know what they want, but still they can’t get it, it is because of the negativity that
resides in them. There is a need to remove all that immediately in order to be focused.

Here are some important points one need to learn :

1. Avoid politicking. Don’t involve yourself in political affairs. It’s completely okay to watch
news to stay updated, but getting involved in anything and debating is not good.
2. Try to remove negative people from your life. Stop chasing people who don’t care about
you and the people who are following you.
3. Start bargaining. Do not pay for things that don't matter to you.

The basic reason why these things matter is that they help us to manage our time and optimise our
energy.
Don’t do a lot of unnecessary things and waste your energy. Try to store your energy. Time and energy are
constant. You must know how much energy you need to waste or how much to be used in order to be
productive. Avoid the events and happenings are not useful and non effective for you. If you can’t
remove such habits that are disturbing to you, you can’t learn anything new.

No matter who you are and what you want to do, you always look at yourself at a position that you want in
the near future. Everyone has a goal to achieve and a vehicle as a means to achieve it. Your health, family
members are important in life.

Take care of things that are your main goals in achieving success and don’t get
indulge in other unnecessary things that are not even related to your purpose.
Following are the things that matter a lot in order to learn new skills which couldn’t until you come up with
the habit of avoiding doing unnecessary stuff. Maintenance of time and energy is important and will help
us in improving our productivity and will help us focus on the things that are necessary in
accomplishment of our goals.

Summary Session 4:

Sensitivity is a parameter that defines the dependency of one factor over other factors. Sensitivity
analysis is a financial model that determines how target variables are affected based on changes in other
variables known as input variables. There are three types of sensitivity analysis which plays an important
role in your life, that are as follows

1. Theoretical sensitivity Analysis :

Theoretical Sensitivity analysis (Sensitivity Analysis to analyse) is the study of how the uncertainty in
output of a mathematical model or system can be divided and allocated to different sources of
uncertainty in its inputs. Sensitivity analysis is used by scientists, data scientists, engineers, doctors.
2. Practical sensitivity analysis -
Practical Sensitivity Analysis (Sensitivity analysis to understand) used when you need to be selective
about what to choose. It is understanding what factors really matter Important points about sensitivity
analysis that students get confuse about area.
a. One should be sensitive about the thing that matters and not on the things that really doesn't
matter to them.
b. Marks don't matter, intelligence matters.
c. English doesn't matter, your communication matters.
d. Your drop out doesn't matter, degree matters and what you have learned matters.

3. Personal sensitivity analysis

Personal sensitivity (Sensitivity analysis to hide) is about personal reaction to situations. If you are
sensitive towards anything you should not tell that to others, because if you do so people will try to
mold your decision. Try to hide your own personal sensitivity. Practical sensitivity is the way most political
parties work. As a voter, one will be more sensitive about water, roads and other resources but more than
that they will be more sensitive about religion.
