The Apprentice again shows attitude and enthusiasm wins out

I've had this in my mind a for a few days now but it really came to the fore when I was at a conference on NEETs earlier this week.

Think back to the winner of the Apprentice this year - Lee McQueen. Track down to a previous post of mine (the only one with a comment as well) which is about how employers see attitude and ethusisam as being much more important than qualifications, indeed, it's the primary decision factor.

Lee is exactly that person, a poor presenter who enthusistically treid to get better (and did), a can do attitude to everything, but not that many qualifications, not traditionally seen clever.
