Why should people care about upskilling with Soft Skills?
We live in a world where education and technical skills are becoming the norm. A degree or a technical skill is not enough to get you ahead anymore. The job market is saturated with experts in each field like you and me. However, the only way that you can set yourself apart from the next knowledgeable specialist in your line of work is through soft skills. A Harvard research study on the importance of soft skills showed that 85% of job success comes from having well-developed soft skills and people skills. The world of work is constantly changing and so are the people in it, the only way to stay on top of these changes and make a real impact in your field is to join us at Moringa School to start your journey of self-discovery and acquire the soft skills you need to continue being a successful professional.
