Your most important knowledge work job skill

Cube Rules is all about working in cubes and wanting to provide our best work to us and our team.

Yet, despite all the work we do, we are dissatisfied and so is our team. We sense never-ending work on a task or project with no end in site. We hit the treadmill of work rather than the upbeat employee engagement of accomplishment.

How can this happen?

Knowledge work is different from previous work. At my summer job in college, I worked in a paper mill where, in one shift, we produced 750 cases of diapers, 12 boxes to a case and 12 diapers to a box. 108,000 diapers later, I was done for the day.

Knowledge work isn’t the same. Instead, it requires critical job skills about the work.
