<strong>Skills</strong><br />

� <strong>Skills</strong> are defined as expertness, practiced ability, facility in<br />

doing something, dexterity <strong>and</strong> tact. Skill encompasses<br />

experience <strong>and</strong> practice, <strong>and</strong> the gaining of skill leads to<br />

unconscious <strong>and</strong> automatic actions. Skill is more than just<br />

the following of rule-based actions. <strong>The</strong> potential downside<br />

of such an attribute is that, in the absence of knowledge<br />

<strong>and</strong> attitudes, such a "skilled" person may have no ability or<br />

capacity to react to situations outside the normal condition,<br />

i.e. skills alone without knowledge <strong>and</strong> attitudes can be<br />

dangerous.<br />
