Important Skills of ECM analysts

What do you think is very important for 1st ecm analysts to learn?


With the equity market slowing down, the seniors on my team are scheduling a bunch of learning sessions. Problem is I have to come up with the topics and am quickly running out of ideas. Any ideas of what to discuss with seniors?
