Focusing is the ability to concentrate on tasks and manage cognitive load effectively. In a fast-paced financial services environment, strong focus helps professionals manage multiple priorities, avoid distractions, and maintain productivity. This skill is increasingly important as professionals are bombarded with information and must filter out the irrelevant to concentrate on what matters most.
Skills Development Scotland identifies Focusing as one of the Self Management meta-skills. Find out more about ‘Skills 4.0 – A skills model to drive Scotland’s future’ .
