I happened to sit next to Clay Parker, the CEO of a technology company that makes micro electronics devices.For the last few years, I'd been reading about the rapidly changing world of work and was increasingly concerned (hat students are not prepared for today's workplace. Buried in book knowledge, university students talk like a book and always pass exams with flying colours. However, when facing HR staff instead of their teachers, what they have learned seems useless. So I asked Parker what qualities he most wanted in a potential new employee. I expected a list of technical skillsespecially since Parker is an engineer himself-but I was way off 【he mark.“First, I look for someone who asks good questions, v Parker responded. "Our business is changing, and so arc the skills of our engineers. Wc can teach them the technical stuff. But for employees willing to solve problems or to learn new things, they have to know what questions to ask. And wc can't teach them how to ask good questions-how to think. The ability to ask the right questions reflects good thinking ability, the most important quality.MIndeed, the ability to ask good questions has been a repeated theme in almost all of my conversations about core competences and skills for success in today's workplace. It turns out that asking good questions goes hand in hand with (he problem solving ability in the minds of most employers.The students have always been brought up to live up to a certain standard and so much emphasis has been put on fixed rules and giving the expected answer of their teachers instead of raising a question. We teachers are always blaming the students for giving wrong answers. Perhaps we should ask ourselves whether we are always asking the right questions.1.

Tool use, self-consciousness, language, and culture are high on the list, but in fact all of these characteristics can be found elsewhere in the animal kingdom. Humans and apes are close relatives, so it is perhaps not surprising that chimpanzees use tools or that gorillas (大猩猩)have a sense of fair play, even rejecting carrots (which they normally accept) when they sec their neighbors getting grapes. But the qualities that we often think of as the human's exist not just on land, but in the ocean as well.Among the invertebrates, octopuses (章鱼)are known for their intelligence, even exhibiting evidence of playfulness, tool use, and personality. But these skilled predators live alone and consequently lack culture. Dolphins, on (he other hand, are large-brained, long-living, social-group-based predators, and it is here that we find the greatest similarity to human-like culture and awareness.Culture depends on the ability of animals to pass on things they have learned to others. Many animals have culture in this sense, but what sets dolphins apart is what they pass on. Some boldenose dolphins hold sponges in (heir mouths that they use as tools to sweep fish hiding on ihe ocean floor. This ability is handed down through generations (especially in females), with some familiesgrandmother, mother, and daughter-all feeding in this highly specialized way.Another characteristic that dolphins share with humans is their ability to recognize themselves in a mirror. When facing a mirror, most animals behave as though they are interacting with another individual. Even in humans, the ability to recognize that the image in a mirror is oneself docs not occur before the age of 18 months. Dolphins not only recognize themselves, but if a black mark is put on the body of a dolphin, it will spend extra time a( the mirror to look at the mark.5.
