DESCRIPTION:Let’s Stop Talking About Soft Skills: They’re Power Skills\nThis webinar will discuss why soft skills such as empathy\, listening\, being a good team player\, thinking holistically\, effective communication etc really are business Power Skills and why we need to see more of them in lead roles.\nLet’s Stop Talking About Soft Skills: They’re PowerSkills is a title used by Josh Bersin in his on-line publication of the same name \, a good read if you get the chance.  \nCompanies of today are not only looking for technical skills\, but behavioural skills to increase and support their business. \nSkills such as empathy\, listening\, being a good team player\, thinking holistically\, effective communication etc – these are as important as having five years of technical experience and certification.  \nThis has often been where women have naturally been the strongest players\, but in the IT industry\, they have been woefully under-represented at the Senior Leadership Table\, as well as within technical teams. \nHowever\, things are changing\, more women are returning to their IT careers and pockets of strong female leaders have emerged.  \nBusinesses have recognised the worth of behavioural skills and company culture. Skills that have often taken years to acquire owing to a rollercoaster of experience both at work and in our personal lives.  \nThe webinar is going to discuss why these soft skills really are business Power Skills and why we need to see more of them in lead roles.  \n\nSpeakers:\n\nAngela Cunneen – Country Manager\, VMware\nYvonne Daymond – Programme Manager\, NZ Police\nKiran Adonda – SDM\, Artios/ Kainga Ora\n\n\nEvent & Pricing Information:\nThis is a: \n\nTech Alliance event\nFree for Members & Non-Members\nA link will be sent to you closer to the time of the webinar\n\nWould you like to know more about hosting an event or sharing your story?  Please contact us on events@techalliance.nz
