- You've got a big project and you need to understand how to turn asks into actions. You get feedback on your poll request and you want to respond to it effectively. You work in a team and you'd like that team to be a learning and growing organization. What kind of skills help you do all of this? Critical thinking skills are essential to confronting these and other challenges you face in your career as a software engineer.
