Every workplace has its problems and challenges.  Your employer will expect you to use your critical thinking skills to anticipate problems, so they can be prevented.  If they cannot be prevented, you will need to be able to work out ways of solving them.

Versatility and adaptability are also tremendous assets.  Employers want employees who accept and co-operate with change as the company grows.  The ability to analyse situations critically will help you see the bigger picture – the events that are causing the change – so you can respond positively and productively.
