These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for Sport & Fitness Management majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Equipment Selection is very distinctive for majors, but the Instructing, Speaking, Monitoring, Reading Comprehension, Learning Strategies, Active Listening, Critical Thinking, Judgment and Decision Making, Writing, Active Learning, Time Management, Social Perceptiveness, Complex Problem Solving, Coordination, Persuasion, Management of Personnel Resources, Systems Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Service Orientation, Negotiation, Operations Analysis, Mathematics, Management of Material Resources, Quality Control Analysis, Management of Financial Resources, Science, Operation Monitoring, Technology Design, Troubleshooting, Equipment Selection, Operation and Control, Programming, Installation, Equipment Maintenance, and Repairing are the three most important skills for people in the field.
