School of Accounting
Rachel Domnick: In designing this effort, our master's faculty selected five key competencies from the Korn Ferry Leadership Architect framework to augment the technical skills that are the focus of our program. Those competencies include ensuring accountability, managing ambiguity, collaborating, communicating effectively, and self-awareness. As part of the first course in our master's program, students are introduced to these competencies and guided to understand how they tie into the accounting profession. Students are provided with resources to understand the competencies, and instructors explicitly label activities and assignments with the competencies to which it ties.
Further, at multiple points during their master's experience, each student receives an individualized report containing feedback from master's faculty and their fellow master's students. Students also have the opportunity to understand better the feedback they've received through tailored sessions with a career center staff person trained in the Korn Ferry framework.

For actuaries, it should be analytical and numerical skills. Being a good team player and, at the same time, being able to work independently and take on a leadership role will definitely help the employee get promoted.
Other important skills include good time management and organization skills, proficiency in basic computer skills, willingness to learn, such as attending industry-related seminars, training, etc.
