As organisations change to meet the dynamics of today’s ever-changing world, so soft skills have become of significantly increased importance. Ensuring that all your managers and leaders have the professional leadership skills necessary is now absolutely vital. That is a hard fact.
Research, as evidenced by the CIPD, indicates that building and developing soft skills remains under-developed in many organisations. Many managers and leaders are themselves lacking the vital people skills to deal with the increasing pressures on their daily routines. That can directly impact upon the teams, the people, and the results for which they are held accountable.
As a result, high levels of competence in the behavioural, interpersonal and process skills are more critical than ever before as organisations seek to attract top talent, successfully promote from within, and retain the top talent that will drive the organisation forward.
It is no longer sufficient to only develop expertise in a specifically chosen technical field.
Success in today’s environment requires and demands that they integrate their knowledge and skills – leading and managing individuals and teams in a myriad of situations and challenges. Of increasing importance is understanding how to integrate those skills into their daily responsibilities.
