Description: Actuaries are well-known for their strong technical skills-in particular, their ability to analyze complex information, draw logical conclusions, and develop solutions to improve business results.

As their careers advance, the actuary's audience continues to broaden to include non-actuarial professionals from a variety of disciplines, senior executives, and customers. They must learn to communicate effectively with any audience that they are faced with. They must be able to make a compelling case for their point-of-view in a simple and succinct fashion.
