20. In today’s world, the ability to cooperate well with other people is more important than in the past.
20. agree
1. 1차산업(농업)은 가족끼리 했으나 현재는 3차산업(서비스업)이 주류다
ex. 옛날엔 가족중심으로 자기들끼리만 일을 했으나 현재는 제3자와의 교류로 일을 한다.
2. 현재는 글로벌 시대이므로 다른 나라들과 협력하는 능력이 무엇보다 중요하다.
ex. 지구촌 사회의 중요한 문제들은 한 국가의 힘으로는 해결할 수 없으므로 국제적인 협력을 이끌어내는 능력이 필수. 컴뮤니케이션 스킳
It is often argued that the ability to cooperate well with other people is more important in today than in the past. Even though the jury is still out, I agree with the statement. The rationale behind this is that the main field of industry has shifted from primary and secondary industry to tertiary industry. Moreover, it is more pivotal to cooperate efficiently with others since the global era has come.
First, the chief domain of business in the past was primary or secondary industry, but today it is tertiary industry. Although some critics may argue that coordinating with other people in today’s world is not as significant as it was in the past, it is more justifiable to contend that the crucial sphere of business has been alternated from agriculture and manufacture to service. For example, according to a number of prominent Korean scholars on Business, most of urban people usually are apt to undertake on new team projects which they should work with new members rather than familiar members. The underlying cause of this is identified to be the fact that in the past Korean society was sustained by family farming, but today it has specialized in service industry. This has contributed to the following phenomenon: today’s people tend to face unfamiliar businessmen and women regardless of their will whether they want to meet them or not. Therefore, this clearly indicates that cooperating smoothly with others in today’s world is more vital than in the past.
Additionally, the world has become globalized, thereby reinforcing the importance of cooperating effectively with others. In other words, it is most crucial to manage international issues or problems hand in hand, since these are too complex and ponderous to be handled by only one nation. According to a research recently released by the National Foundation of Communication in Korea, communication and negotiation skills play pivotal roles to reach an agreement in international deals, especially in international conferences such as G20 and so on. So, in an important meeting, people need to be capable of managing universal arguments by utilizing these skills. This is a clear indication for why a capability to cooperate well with others is significant in today’s world than in the past.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly believe that the ability to cooperate well with other people is more important in today than in the past. The reasons are not only that the main field of industry has been shifted from primary and secondary industry to tertiary industry, but also it is more pivotal to cooperate efficiently with others since the global era has come. Therefore, these are the two most convincing reasons for my contention.
