Further, a LinkedIn study found that hiring managers indicated their company's productivity was limited due to a lack of candidates' soft skills. “The No. 1 problem with today's young workforce is the soft skills gap,” “It runs across the entire workforce – among workers with technical skills that are in great demand, every bit as much as workers without technical skills.” Soft skills are key to individuals' success in the workplace and are a competitive differentiator in the marketplace.

EDtalk - Your Unique Assessment - Understanding Self It's FREE! As a trainer and manager with The Coca-Cola Company for over 27 years and a certified behavioral trainer (DISC Behavioral System), I gathered together a team of behavioral experts and we created a brand-new cutting edge assessment. Over the years there have been all types of rating scales developed to measure attitude, the most popular being the Likert scale (rate something from 1 to 10) which was created in 1932. The problem is, it has major accuracy issues because of how people view what these numbers mean. This outdated piece of technology lacks precision and does not accurately reflect your true sentiment. That's exactly what we thought, and we partnered with behavioral experts to create a brand-new, high definition behavioral assessment solution. The predictive analytics engine removes subjectivity by allowing you to accurately quantify your priorities and provides valuable insights about yourself. The more you know about yourself, the better quality decisions you will make for your future. Get your FREE assessment at https://lnkd.in/ekgm64Y
