The Future of Business
Current university students will be our business leaders in just 10 years time. They grew up with an Ipad in their hand and most can code in their sleep. They have hard skills, in abundance.
What they don’t have are bridging skills. For example, many students find it hard to bridge the gap from theoretical study to experiential work.
Nearly every article written in the HR field in the last 4 years discussed the increasing need for soft skills. It’s a reasonable assumption. However, are we looking at soft skills to solve a 20th century problem, or as a way to create more stability in the 21st century?
What would happen if we started to teach uncertainty as an opportunity rather than a risk in schools?
Soft Skills That Get Concrete Results
With more and more people working remotely, it’s important that EVERYONE understands how to ask the right questions to ensure aligned communication.
A facilitation-style workshop involving the following concepts supports careers in the 21st century:
- Learning step outside of assumptions and question the obvious to develop a testing and feedback culture.
- Connecting to your authentic self to deliver more seamless leadership of self and others.
- Learning how to ask relevant questions that elicit the thought framework of others.
- Releasing the 20th century “workhouse” culture & Changing GOALS into JOURNEYS.
- Bridging the gap between more experienced staff and younger staff to increase insight through mentoring and shadowing.
- Learning to take personal responsibility and creating space for experiential learning without shame.
- Limiting categorisation: gender, age, culture and personality testing.
- Creating space for fully experiential rehearsal and live learning experiences.
- Learning to connecting with emotions at work and using their energy to increase productivity and momentum.
- Building self-confidence and RESILIENCE through supporting the connection to the genuine self.
