"Conceptual Skills"

Conceptual skills are a demonstration of excellent cognitive abilities -- being able to formulate ideas and having the creative thinking needed to imagine scenarios and think through ideas for new solutions.

In Robert Katz’s paper, ‘Skills of an Effective Administrator’, in the Harvard Business Review in 1955, he described three facets of managerial skill that are still relevant today:

Human skills – How you work with people
Technical skills – Your knowledge of a subject or activity
Conceptual skills – Your ability to work with new ideas

People who have good conceptual skills are adept at solving challenging problems and scenarios using a creative or innovative approach.

In recruitment, conceptual skills are considered an integral requirement for executives in top-level management.
