And so many people are suffering from information overload. You must become a proficient communicator, both in person and in print. Imagination is another key attribute that companies will pay for. We are living in a time of innovation, when tomorrow's idea quickly becomes today's newest rage. If you have the ability to visualize and imagine new solutions, you are better prepared for today's uncertain workplace environment, and to add value to your work environment.
