This book takes a hands-on approach to skills development and will help your students to stand out from the crowd, both during their studies and when applying for jobs. It supports students in the development of key organisational and interpersonal skills, including time management, teamwork and leadership, through activities and reflective tasks. It also provides practical guidance on developing vital entrepreneurial attributes, such as critical thinking and problem solving, and articulating these skills to prospective employers.

This text is an essential resource for all students looking to develop the skills, experience and attributes which are desired by today’s employers. It is also ideal for students on personal development planning and employability modules across all disciplines and levels.
