Is traditional typing skill necessary to draw most out of the modern digital technology?

I feel that the best way to get the maximum out of any situation is to use an amalgam of traditional techniques along with modern ideologies. The same applies in this case. Since most softwares and processes which are used by common man require some form of typing, it would be a smart move for any business professional to greatly increase his/her typing speed along with the possession of a healthy vocabulary.

regular and every day typing

1. Most probably in every organization, Typing skills matter. Because every organization have its record entry level to save its important data for backup and quick processing of files and folders, so that the record maybe provided as and when required by the immediate boss or top management.

Yes. As i think, modern techniques helps you until you know the basics. and these basics will come till you go through the traditional (or you can say) root way.
