Many special abilities such as expertise and global language skills are required to succeed in the world today. However, above all, a communication skill is most essential. The reason are that we have to interact with other areas, and have to appeal our advantages.
First of all, the most important reason for my insistence is that to cooperate with other, a communication skill is necessary. This is because modern society is more and more becoming complicated and integrated. Therefore modern business should combine with other parts to produce better products and to provide customers with better service. Thus, when people better understand about explanations and problems of other people, they could work better than anyone. A good example is the transportation of a cell phone market. Compared to in the past when a cell phone required only a function for call, today the cell phone need various functions such as e-books, access to the internet and camera. Thus, engineers in the cell phone company should work with various engineers of other parts and cooperated with them. Moreover, cell phone companies should combine their services to offer more convenient and quicker service. To perform these works, workers have to be a good listener, and thus they have to rapidly comprehend other engineers’ explanations and to understand other companies’ difficulties in order to cooperate with them. This case shows that modern businesses need a great communication skill to cooperate with other parts
Another reason for my thinking this way is that to be a successful person in this world, people should be able to present their ability effectively. This is because, in a modern society there are so many businesses and people. In this competitive society, they are struggling to survive, however almost people have similar capabilities. In this circumstance, the ability to present their merits would be a great tool to appeal customers and to get a job. According to a study conducted by Korea National Research Center in 2009, person who has good presentation skills have a enormous competitive advantage in job market. The researchers pointed out that these people could work effectively at workplace and easily get a job because they attract other’s attention. This survey implies that the more competitive society, more important a presentation skill is in order to appeal to others.
To sum up, to be successful in modern society, we have to be a good listener and a greater speaker to interact with others in this complicated world. In this regard, I firmly believe that a vary important skill a person should learn is a communication skill.
