So, we can develop our skills through the transfer of knowledge. Abilities are the qualities of being able to do something. There is a fine line between skills and abilities. Most people would say the differentiator is whether the thing in question was learned or innate.
I think of organization and prioritization as abilities that can help an employee develop their instructional design skills. Recruiters look for knowledge, skills, and abilities during the hiring process. Managers use KSAs when they are considering employees for transfers and promotions. KSAs are used as the company creates and updates their replacement and succession plans. As we talk more about the skills gap , it will be important to understand the difference because the way we obtain knowledge, skills, and abilities can vary.
For instance, if the issue is knowledge, then maybe we can create an in-house library that employees can check out books on the topics.

To help account for this puzzle, this research note will point to an easily overlooked obstacle to economic diversification away from oil: the sheer scale of economic change required to transition away from a high-income oil economy to a post-oil economy.
It would need to grow dramatically if it were to support current levels of state spending through non-oil domestic taxes, all the while dealing with severe contractionary and inflationary effects of taxation. The path to such a non-oil economy is, at best, very long, measured in generations rather than decades. Although the size of the Saudi private sector has grown significantly since the s, the Saudi economy remains highly dependent on state spending, which in turn is largely financed through oil income.
Even after the considerable fiscal reforms of , recurrent taxes and fees only accounted for slightly more than 10 percent of total state spending in The government continues to account for about two-thirds of all employment of Saudi citizens figure 1 , a dramatically higher share than the percent in most other countries.
Salaries constitute close to 50 percent of all Saudi government expenditure, compared to a typical ratio of percent around the world. Pay for the minority of Saudis employed in the private sector is lower than in government. Because much of the income of the foreign workers who dominate the private sector is remitted home, household demand in the private economy therefore depends on spending from government employees and thereby is indirectly fed by government.
The kingdom has seen significant economic adjustment measures since , including a brutal corruption crackdown, slashing of government capital expenditure, and delayed or cancelled contractor payments.
Most of these have affected economic elites rather than the population at large, however. When fiscal adjustment really hit households in the shape of public sector allowance cuts, the measures were reversed after a couple of months. The recent introduction of VAT and higher energy prices were accompanied by generous compensation measures for Saudi households.
Among the major budget items, salary spending has increased the fastest in and is set to do the same in The private sector — while treated more harshly — remains as deeply state-dependent as Saudi households, both indirectly through the consumption spending of government employees and directly through contracts and subsidized inputs. The ratio of private sector GDP to state expenditure has remained in a steady state ratio of about 1.
The ratio of government to private consumption in Saudi Arabia is about three times higher than the international average, and much of the private consumption is indirectly state-induced. The private sector has far to go to create an economy that is driven by self-sustaining private demand, not rent-financed government spending.
But how far? One way of answering this question is to estimate what the Saudi private sector would have to look like to sustain a non-rentier system of a similar size to the current rentier economy. States in non-rentier economies are largely financed by domestic taxes, and these taxes are derived from private economy activity.
