You are so right about all the traits that are needed to be successful in the world of work, and it takes a special, mature individual to (1) be aware these are needed and (2) seek out the learning of them while in college. But most of us don't have a clue until we get blooded and bruised in our first jobs. We are woefully unprepared for what awaits us and slowly and painfully learn the personal strengths and skills required to succeed in the real world. You might be interested to know that my company will soon be introducing an online subscription service called ProStar that helps people to develop strengths in many of the areas on your list. Keep these great posts coming. Your voice of reason and real-world advice is needed - and highly prized by me! Once again, you are Mr. Truth-Teller, Hal.
