Mary Kay: Hi, Dave. So whats a Skill Inventory?
Dave Powell: A Skill Inventory is a list of skills or competencies that an individual possesses. In many fields, skill inventories are used as self-assessment tools. The goal of a skill inventory is to identify one's skills, prioritize them according to one's interest levels, and assess where improvements can be made for both the benefit of the individual and the organization. A skill inventory also can be used for career exploration and professional development.
Mary Kay: Thanks, Dave. Have a great afternoon.
Dave: You, too. Talk to you soon.
