Versatility is about relationship skills, and ultimately, it has been proven to be the best predictor of success. While being in the worst performing industries category isn’t a good thing, there are many opportunities for these industries ranked lowest in Versatility.
A primary lesson from Style and Versatility is that enhancing interpersonal effectiveness never stops; there is always more to develop.
