Thank you, UK for this.
Well, skill appears overrated sometimes especially technical skills.
The reason is, all Architects ideally have the same skill-set technically. The differentiating factor however is what I call life skills.
As such, I advise young professionals to have a blend of technical skills and life skills. So rather than work with the head & hand alone, work with the heart as well.
I shared this background in order to say that, my life skills have served me more in my career journey across my expressions including leveraging Architecture. Life skills such as relational intelligence, people skills, leadership development, emotional intelligence, communication and presentation, resilience, goal setting amongst others.
