To avoid being behind others at work, it is good to constantly check whether you meet professional skill standards and know-how in your field.
One useful way to do this is to read job ads and compare the skills required with your skills. If you find that you lack a particular skill, it is good to get some training or find another way to broaden your horizons.
If you continue to improve skills you will also increase your chances of getting a dream job or you can negotiate a higher wage with your current employer.
One typical example of improving skills is learning additional language or keeping your foreign language skills up to date, and today there are a wide range of applications that can teach you languages as well.
This is a really easy way to integrate language into your daily life because you can spend some time on the app during the trip to and from work, for example.
