Soft Skills Development Is Crucial For All Business Leaders, And The Australian Institute Of Management Group Ceo Ben Foote Explains Why.
For managers to keep up with ever-evolving business trends, it’s necessary to upskill, and one of the most important areas to enhance are soft skills. A report by Deloitte Access Economics highlights that the demand for soft skills such as problem-solving, self-management and critical thinking significantly exceeds supply. And that’s where the Australian Institute of Management (AIM) can help.
AIM focuses on the critical skills managers and leaders need to be effective in a complex and fast-changing work environment. It offers face-to-face and online courses on personal effectiveness, leadership and management, human resources, finance, sales and project management, with new courses available in digital, innovation and wellness, and health and wellbeing.
“According to Gartner, 40 per cent of the skills employees use are learned in the preceding year,” AIM Group CEO Ben Foote tells The CEO Magazine. “Then add to this the massive labour market changes due to machine learning and automation. With this pace of change, training and growth are critical, especially in soft skills development.”
