- New Statesman - Why skills don't matter any more Argues system of modern capitalism is undermining skills investment: 'Modern capitalism's emphasis on flexibility has deprived most employees of any sense of narrative in their working lives ...their skills are declared obsolescent, their job is outsourced, their company is taken over or suddenly switches to different products and markets. Constant downsizing and delayering make any promotion provisional. In such a world, only a fool commits either to a particular company or a particular skill' from : duncanoleary 5th February 2007
