Developing and measuring workplace soft skills: the challenge for business programmes today
Well-developed soft skills are critical in today’s workplace for both employee and employer. Research has shown a significant return on investment for organisations that reward those employees who most effectively optimise their soft skills. Therefore, it is vital that Business Schools ensure that their graduates are equipped with these requisite skills.
Join us for a workshop, facilitated by Peregrine Global Services, in which we’ll look at some of the main challenges Business Schools encounter when it comes to workplace soft skills.
We’ll also explore:
• Current research on workplace soft skills
• AMBA accreditation requirements relating to soft skills
• How workplace soft skills are developed
• The use of experiential learning to advance soft skill acquisition
• How soft skills are taught in post-graduate business and management programmes
• Tools and resources for measuring soft skills
Speakers
• Olin O Oedekoven, President and CEO, Peregrine Global Services
• Paul Mallette, Director of International Operations, Peregrine Global Services
