Hard Skills and Tech Certs lapse.
Soft Skills are timeless.
our FOCUS: Learn How to Translate Tech Talk
The pace of innovation has left many IT professionals exposed to a changing landscape. As technology life cycles continue to shorten, the value of many technical skills has become short-lived.
“Soft Skills” endure these changes. And, they are essential tools for technology teams to navigate the rapidly shifting business environment, nimbly and effectively. The reason behind this is that the human element is still core to technology advancement.
Collaboration, communication, and coordination skills are increasing in importance. Businesses are demanding employees who can translate technical terms into meaningful business outcomes.
In fact, a CareerBuilder study showed 77% of employers value Soft Skills as much as Hard Skills.
