ACTIVITIES
The lesson starts with a warm-up in which students think of three traits for people in different positions and professions (e.g. president/mayor, pharmacist, children’s books writer). Then, students create collocations (e.g. indispensable employee, vantage point, inherent capability, etc.) by matching the words. They practise the collocations and complete the statements with their ideas. Then, students compare their answers with a partner and agree or disagree with each other’s statements.
Next, students discuss some questions about adaptability as a must-have trait. They talk about enhancing adaptability and assessing it during job interviews. Finally, students answer questions about other personality traits (e.g.attention to detail, financial acumen, perseverance, resilience, etc.) and later on they discuss their line of work and talk about other positions and professions.

Thanks, I’m so happy you liked it 😍
Wonderful topic and article for advanced students. I used for workers. We ended up doing a role play with some students being venture capitalist and some being entrepreneurs.
Great, thanks for your comment! I’d love to hear more about the role play you did 🙂
