Soft skills for group leaders. Poznan, Poland, 2019
About the project
Soft skills for group leaders was a training course held in Poznan, Poland between 4th and 12th of January 2019. This training course was hosted by Logos Polska, which created it together with TURKIYE AVRUPA VAKFI.
Soft skills enable people to effectively navigate their environment and at the same time work well with others. They help to perform well and achieve their goals with complementing hard skills. However, traditionally, people don’t receive adequate soft skills training – either during vocational instruction or as part of on- the- job training. Ironically, for many people, the so-called soft skills are often some of the hardest skills to develop. Like hard skills, soft skills require a lot of practice to make a person really skilled at using them. Unlike hard skills, there are no exams to prove that you can do them. It is measured personally by how well a person manages the relationships with those around him/her.
Objectives:
- To get participants familiar with the current concept of soft skills, different groups of soft skills, and their importance in personal and career development
- To develop and improve specific soft skills
- To inspire the participants to promote soft skills development among their colleagues, youth target groups and other youth NGOs
