What do you see as the biggest skill gap in the finance profession that needs to be addressed over the next ten years?

Glenn Hopper  I tend to agree with you that it is the biggest area finance professionals will need to focus on over the next decade.  I do not think we need to learn deep stats or Machine Learning algos but how to utilize the tools to be more effective. 

Great point about soft skills being even more important as much of the technical work is done by AI. 

Great point, Adam. Do you have any guidance on helping teams have more of a human touch as hyper-automation grows?

Adam well said and makes since that 10 years is a very long time horizon.  Also a human approach to things will be more important than ever as AI plays a much bigger role in our lives. 

Jeffrey - For me, it's about doubling down on the skills that are more difficult to automate.

- Actively engage with your peers and seek out problems to solve
- Listen to understand instead of listening to answer 
- Read widely about how to improve your EQ

Any you'd add?

I think Storytelling is always a valuable skill it is one we need today.  My thinking behind data science is I think it will become a requirement in ten years.  I imagine storytelling will be treated similar as it is today.  However, I agree with you storytelling is a very important skill and one more people should focus on.
