In an article published by The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, the number one skill most employers are looking for in their leadership and management team is their ability to critically think and develop critical and strategic thinking in their teams. Harvard Business Review also dissected a management survey conducted by Gartner in 2021 further evidencing that employers seek out managers who are able to inspire and develop critical thinking in its workforce.
