Soft skills are practices and attributes that fundamentally support effectiveness and collaboration in business and organization. If your technical skill is how fast you type code or your ability to take a photograph, soft skills include social graces, communication abilities, personal habits, cognitive or emotional empathy, and time management. National Business Education Association deems soft skills as critical for being industrious in today’s workplace. (wiki)
In this course you’ll walk through simple frameworks that help you understand the basics of social dynamics as they relate to business productivity and negotiation. As participant you will have access to online content, live group check-ins, and practical challenges that bring the lessons into your daily life.

Video Content – Each week you will receive pre-recorded videos that you will have access to. These presentations will out line the concepts that we will cover for that week. They will be available for you to view on mobile or desk top for the duration of the course.
Webinars – In the middle of the week we will have scheduled webinars that will allow you to check in with me, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of the concepts, and since they will be group calls, you can also chat and check in with others. The calls will be about 1.5hrs and they will also be recorded in case we all can not make them.
IRL Challenges – IRL is short for In Real Life. We will put these ideas and conversations to practice in the real world by engaging in a challenge each week that we can check in on, via the webinar.
