Many people today have been developed emotionally and mentally for an era that no longer really exists. This has created a critical soft-skills gap between current workforce ability and business requirements today. In this course participants learn to ‘readapt’ their soft skills so that they are aligned with a thriving 21st century business. They are also given a simple framework from which to continue the self-development so that the training instigates sustainable change.
Through a mixture of tried and tested experiential and didactic learning techniques applied to the data science setting, participants develop the following skills relevant to innovative data scientists in the 21st century: creativity, a beginner’s mind, global citizenship, efficient communication, compassion, resilience, self-leadership, critical thinking, empathy, emergence/adaptability, self-awareness, & self-regulation. Equally, a deep appreciation for cultural, intellectual and gender diversity is gained.
Participants also learn the art of ‘willpower mindfulness’ – the most overlooked but significant soft skill. Through deep awareness training students learn how to notice very subtle internal signals in order to build their ability to monitor, manage and enhance their will and focus. This results in less buy-in to drama and workplace toxicity, better conflict resolution & negotiation skills, while also boosting morale and positivity.
This course is a stand-alone course which also forms part of AlphaZetta’s leadership curriculum. Our goal is to optimise the talent of each and every participant in order to achieve the most efficient use of their skill-set and character strengths.
