How have you future proofed yourself ?

[Blue_boost]

From my observations not many people out there have too many skills that are transposable from one industry to another.

I fear as the nature of business changes that these people will be near unemployable

For instance what do salesman really do? Walk around and nag people? Buyers mostly know what they want and don't need to be speared into a corner. Plus as industry changes salesman can't really transfer their skill.

How have you future proofed yourself? Or are you vulnerable to be on the scrapheap?

On a serious note (which shouldn't happen in any Blue Boost post), sales persons usually transfer to marketing, customer service, project management, or business management as any high level sales person has to deal with all these facets in their job.
