“What should you do to prepare yourself for a world that is almost entirely unpredictable?
Part of the answer lies in research undertaken by New College of the Humanities. The work looked at UK leaders drawn from a number of different professions and activities, including FTSE 100 CEOs, MPs, partners of law firms, vice chancellors of Russell Group universities and so on.
The full survey is here, and some of the conclusions may surprise people. 60% of the UK’s leaders have humanities, arts or social science degrees. Of this group, the biggest segment is people with humanities degrees. The percentage of leaders with STEM degrees is 15%. Only 7% of people in the sample have vocational qualifications (accounting, business and so on).”
