business skills
English to Norwegian
Marketing
Surveying
This is used repeatedly in a survey I am translating, asking if the person feels they are learning this, if this is important to them etc. Examples of business skills are given as marketing and giving service to customers. It can of course be translated literally "forretningsferdigheter" but this sounds a bit "translated" to me, and I would really like to find something nicer, cannot really find if this is a used term or not. Perhaps there is an obvious solution, but I just have not found it yet.

Comment: "Takk for det, det var en mulighet, men jeg endte på "forretningsferdigheter", det var nok det beste, gitt forutsetningene."

Lederegenskaper
I would consider "lederegenskaper". "Business skills" are very varied, encompassing time management, communication skills, target setting, presentation skills, networking abilities and sales. Hence in my mind, the best Norwegian word that is broad enough in definition is "lederegenskaper".

Forstår, da er det ikke enkelt! Kan "forretningsteft" brukes?

Example sentence:
Det var gode muligheter for å utvikle sterke lederegenskaper
Note from asker:
| Er enig i at det er en helt klar løsning, men problemet var at "managment skills" og "managerial skills" også var brukt i samme liste. |
| Jeg var innom den også, men ut fra definisjonen av teft, syntes jeg ikke at det gav helt det riktige bildet. Har levert jobben nå, endte med det jeg ikke likte så godt i utgangspunktet som den beste løsningen, gitt omstendighetene, men takk for hjelpen! |
