Podcasts about Soft skills

15.000 Menschen. Zwei Tage Schlange. Und eine Frage, die alles verändert hat: Was bleibt von dir, wenn KI übernimmt? Beim Greater Festival 2025 durfte ich auf der Bühne der Lanxess Arena sprechen – über ein Thema, das viele unterschätzen, aber alle betrifft: Charisma. Was du im Video siehst: – Einblicke hinter die Kulissen des größten Persönlichkeitsfestivals Europas – Meine Keynote vor 15.000 Menschen – Ein Workshop mit 200 Unternehmern, Selbstständigen und Machern – Die neue Definition von Charisma – entschlüsselt in 7 Worten – Das System der 4 Charismatypen, das Wirkung im Business sichtbar macht – Und: echte Gespräche, echte Menschen, echte Reaktion Charisma ist kein Talent. Charisma ist kein Soft Skill. Charisma ist ein Wirtschaftsfaktor – und er ist lernbar. Ein Beispiel aus dem Workshop: Frederik, Unternehmer im Tech-Bereich, verliert nach acht Monaten einen Großkunden. Warum? Tänzer trifft Detektiv. Zwei von vier Charismatypen – zwei verschiedene Wirksprachen. Keine Verbindung. Kein Vertrauen. Kein Abschluss. Genau da setzt unsere Arbeit an. Wir helfen Unternehmern und Führungskräften, ihren Typ zu erkennen, ihre Wirkung zu verstehen und Charisma bewusst zu nutzen – in Sales, Führung und Team. Wenn du wissen willst, welcher Charismatyp du bist: Hier geht's zum Test: ➞ https://deincharismatest.de Wir werten deinen Typ im persönlichen Gespräch aus. Kein Bot. Kein vorgefertigter Bericht. Echtes Sparring mit echten Menschen. Und ein ehrlicher Hinweis: Melde dich bitte nur, wenn du es ernst meinst. Wir haben nur wenige Plätze frei. Wenn du spürst, dass dein Business mehr du selbst sein darf, dann ist das dein Einstieg. Charisma ist kein Nice-to-have. Es ist dein Fundament – gerade in einer Welt, die sich rasant verändert. Trau dich du zu sein,  deine Silke & ein Lächeln. ✨

Engineering employers typically look for candidates with the right hard and soft skills. But what do hard and soft skills mean? What is the difference? How can engineers identify, develop, and demonstrate the skills that are in high demand? In this episode of EngineeringPro, we'll be speaking with Justine van Eeden, Key Account Director at NES Fircroft. We'll discuss the differences between hard and soft skills and their significance in the engineering and energy sectors. We will define these types of skills, explain their importance, and explore how engineers can develop the soft skills that recruiters are looking for.

Welcome to another episode packed with insights, laughter, and brutally honest takes on what it's really like working behind the scenes of food innovation. Lucy starts us off by sharing why Stage Gate is close to her heart—yep, she's our resident “systems geek”—and Amy jumps in to champion the power of people and soft skills. Together, we break down how Stage Gate is supposed to be a framework that supports swift, safe, and high-quality product launches, not just another dreaded hoop to jump through.We explore why most folks in the food biz end up learning systems by osmosis rather than by proper training, and how the lack of clear, regularly reviewed processes leads to unnecessary pressure, repetition, and confusion—especially when every team seems to be stashing their own spreadsheet empire. We spill the beans on how they've helped businesses map out what's actually going on, often leaving people gobsmacked at the sheer complexity of bringing a product to shelf.The conversation doesn't shy away from the frustrations: outdated tech (“We're still using Excel from 1995, what's that about?”), squeezed timelines, and the struggle to get leadership onboard with investing in proper product development systems. We put a spotlight on the importance of soft skills and why junior and seasoned team members alike need better training and support—not just chucked in to ‘figure it out'.Listener questions spark discussion about AI's (potentially huge) role in freeing up time for the creative, human parts of innovation, and how vital it is to educate business leaders about making Stage Gate a business-wide priority, not just an NPD headache.In trademark Oh For Food's Sake style, the episode concludes with a call to constantly review systems, embrace new tech with open arms, and invest in people—because systems are only as good as the folks using them.Timestamps00:00 – Why Stage Gate is vital in the food industry00:54 – What Stage Gate is (and isn't)02:18 – Lucy's journey with Stage Gate + early food industry experiences04:25 – Why people and systems must work together05:23 – What Stage Gate actually does & where it goes wrong07:27 – Product development as the “gatekeeper” role08:24 – It's not just NPD's job: Why Stage-Gate is a business process10:07 – The chaos of poor systems: too many spreadsheets11:23 – The industry's slow adoption of technology12:45 – Workshop revelations: Realising the true complexity of launches14:25 – The knock-on effects of a broken process15:50 – What needs to change: Reviewing and modernising Stage-Gate17:23 – Making frameworks flexible and people-focused18:59 – Investing in soft skills and ongoing support19:28 – Embracing tech and AI as tools, not threats20:39 – Top takeaway: Systems + people = successful innovation21:30 – Audience questions: Leadership buy-in, off-the-shelf systems, AI worries24:54 – Training the next generation and the need for mentorship26:55 – Wrap up and calls to actionLinks and Resources:Website Link: https://ohforfoodssake.co.uk/FB Link: https://www.facebook.com/ohforfoodsakeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/oh-for-food-s-sake/You can follow us here on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oh_forfoodssake/For industry consulting from Lucy, connect with her on Instagram or LinkedIn.Find her on Instagram or LinkedIn for further support with industry coaching and facilitation from Amy.Oh For Food's Sake is sponsored by Microsearch Laboratories https://micro-search.co.uk/ and Point 74 https://www.point74.co.uk/See you next time!

Send us a textEpisode Notes: The difference between a good collision repair shop and a truly exceptional one often boils down to one critical factor: how people feel when they interact with your business. Join us this week as Sheryl Driggers, former MSO owner and now lead CSR trainer for Mike Anderson's elite Spartan Groups, reveals the science and strategy behind creating meaningful connections that transform both customer experience and employee satisfaction.Here are three effective actions collision shop leaders can take from Sheryl's insights:Cultivate a Positive Environment: Focus on creating a positive workplace atmosphere. Encourage a culture where positivity is the norm, as it enhances decision-making, creativity, and productivity. This can be achieved by recognizing and celebrating small wins, offering support, and fostering open communication among team members.Enhance Emotional Connections: Train your staff to prioritize emotional intelligence in customer interactions. Encourage them to go beyond standard service protocols by making customers feel valued and understood. Simple gestures like personalized follow-ups or remembering customer preferences can create memorable experiences that enhance customer loyalty.Implement the "One Degree" Concept: Encourage your team to consistently perform small, thoughtful actions that exceed customer expectations. This could include personalized thank-you notes, unexpected discounts, or simply going the extra mile in service delivery. These minor enhancements can significantly impact customer satisfaction and lead to increased referrals and repeat business.Taking these actions, rooted in positive human interactions, can transform both your customer service and employee engagement, driving long-term success for your business! GUEST CONTACTSheryl Driggers - sheryl@collisionadvice.comCollisionAdvice – www.collisionadvice.comShawn Achor Ted Talk: https://youtu.be/GXy__kBVq1M?si=robDiWbKpUVOTuaAThe Seven Habits of Highly Effective People: https://wSupport the showJoin our Mind Wrench mailing list!

In this post-event follow-up, Marco Ciappelli reconnects from Florence with Rob Black and brings in Anthony D'Alton for a deep-dive into something we all talk about but rarely define clearly: so-called soft skills — or, as we prefer to call them… human skills.From storytelling to structured exercises, team communication to burnout prevention, this episode explores how communication, collaboration, and trust aren't just “nice to have” in cybersecurity — they're critical, measurable capabilities. Rob and Anthony share their experience designing real-world training environments where people — not just tools — are the difference-makers in effective incident response and security leadership.Whether you're a CISO, a SOC leader, or just tired of seeing tech get all the credit while humans carry the weight, this is a practical, honest conversation about building better teams — and redefining what really matters in cybersecurity today.If you still think “soft skills” are soft… you haven't been paying attention.⸻Keywords: Cybersecurity, Infosecurity Europe 2025, Soft Skills, Human Skills, Cyber Resilience, Cyber Training, Security Leadership, Incident Response, Teamwork, Storytelling in Cyber, Marco Ciappelli, Rob Black, Anthony Dalton, On Location, ITSPmagazine, Communication Skills, Cyber Crisis Simulation, RangeForce, Trust in Teams, Post Event Podcast, Security Culture___________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Infosecurity Europe 2025 London coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/infosec25Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

Send us a textWhen was the last time you heard a positive story about what happens inside America's jails? For most of us, these facilities only make headlines when something goes wrong—an escape, a use-of-force incident, or a facility failure. But as Major Shaun Klucznik reveals in this compelling conversation, corrections professionals save lives, change futures, and demonstrate extraordinary leadership every single day, largely without recognition.Major Klucznik's remarkable journey from a 19-year-old corrections cadet to the 45th President of the American Jail Association offers a window into how corrections work and builds exceptional leaders. Starting at $5.60 an hour in 1997, he rose through the ranks while witnessing the profession's transformation. His pivotal role in transitioning Hernando County Jail from private to public operation showcases the complex management challenges correctional leaders navigate."Every position is a position of leadership," Klucznik emphasizes, noting how correctional officers develop crucial skills managing challenging situations with minimal resources beyond their communication abilities. This crucible of leadership development explains why so many officers become community leaders outside work—coaching youth sports, leading religious programs, and serving their communities.The conversation delves into the critical role Field Training Officers play in shaping agency culture, the need for transparent communication with the public about both successes and failures, and how leadership philosophies like Jocko Willink's "Extreme Ownership" create empowered, accountable correctional teams. Klucznik also addresses the profession's fight for recognition as first responders, noting correctional officers are first on scene for suicide attempts, medical emergencies, and facility crises.Whether you work in corrections or simply want to understand this essential but often invisible profession, this episode provides invaluable insights into the leadership, professionalism, and dedication that define America's correctional workforce. As Klucznik powerfully argues, corrections isn't a stepping stone—it's a legitimate career where professionals make life-changing differences every E-mail Shaun at shaunk@aja.orgAmerican Jail Association https://www.americanjail.org/Mentioned by Shaun - Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and WinAlso, check out Michael's newest book - POWER SKILLS: Emotional Intelligence and Soft Skills for Correctional Officers, First Responders, and Beyond PepperBallFrom crowd control to cell extractions, the PepperBall system is the safe, non-lethal option.OMNIOMNI is cutting-edge software designed to track inmates and assets within your prison or jail.

In this conversation with Evgenyi Kharam, we're talking about the importance of developing those people skills as a technical builder or founder. It might be hard by his book makes it easy!

How do you grab the attention of the smartest person in the room and introduce an idea that could fundamentally change their approach to leadership? In this insightful episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Gina Catalano, President of Central Forza Group and author of The Leadership Wake Up Call, joins Bill Sherman to discuss her pioneering work in developing emotional intelligence (EQ) for surgeon leaders—a skill set largely overlooked in traditional medical training. Gina shares how her journey from managing medical device teams in Fortune 500 healthcare organizations led her to recognize a critical gap: Surgeons possess extraordinary technical skills but often lack training in emotional intelligence. Her unique insight is transforming how surgeons engage with patients, teams, and even mitigate malpractice risks. She explains the compelling data behind EQ's impact, highlighting research correlating higher EQ among surgeons with lower malpractice claims. Gina also details her groundbreaking project with Duke University's general surgery residency, where she's building a curriculum to instill essential EQ skills early in surgical training. Listeners will learn how Gina's personal experiences and keen observations evolved into a compelling speaking and writing career, all centered around equipping elite performers with the "power skills" needed for true leadership success. This episode isn't just about developing better surgeon leaders—it's about creating profound, measurable changes that enhance patient care and team performance.   Three Key Takeaways: • Emotional intelligence is critical for elite performance — Especially in high-pressure fields like surgery, EQ impacts malpractice rates, team dynamics, and patient outcomes. • Thought leadership bridges knowledge gaps — Introducing EQ to surgeon leaders requires translating soft skills into evidence-based, practical tools that resonate with data-driven professionals. • Early intervention creates lasting change — Embedding emotional intelligence training into medical residency programs can shape more effective leaders from the start. If this episode got you thinking about the power of emotional intelligence in high-performance environments, you'll want to keep going with our conversation with David Wood: The Effects of Soft Skills in Thought Leadership. Both episodes tackle a common challenge—how to introduce and scale “soft skills” like EQ in expert-driven fields where they're often undervalued. Gina Catalano and David Wood each show that these so-called soft skills are actually mission-critical for leadership, trust-building, and long-term success. Listen now and discover how soft skills can create hard results.

Send us a textWendy Dixon-Jewitt is on a mission. As the founder and CEO of Brainstorm Soft Skill Solutions, she strongly advocates for creating safer and more sustainable nursing workplaces, and her passion is unmistakable. Early in her career, Wendy encountered a toxic nursing culture, which she described as "100% responsibility with zero authority to get the necessary tasks done." It's alarming to think about how many nurses have left the profession due to such circumstances. But Wendy did not walk away; instead, she pivoted her focus toward developing her soft skills.Wendy describes soft skills as “everything that happens in the space between people.” She believes one-on-one interactions are where we will transform healthcare. It's about nurses showing up. And it's not easy to show up, to speak up. After all, nurses are as she believes, “dealing with hierarchies, power infrastructures, and oppression and they are taking a risk every time they open their mouth.” Wendy knows some of her views are controversial but maybe that's what the nursing profession needs; a little controversy to shake things up. Through her leadership and training, she is determined to help us find our voice. Wendy developed Universal Precautions for Emotional Dysregulation—a proactive, skills-based framework for reducing the risk of verbal abuse, emotional harm, and professional burnout. Brilliant. We're talking de-escalation, boundary-setting, and building team resilience. And unlike myself, Wendy doesn't believe resilience is a four-letter word and I might be coming around to her point of view.In the five-minute snippet: sounds like her hometown is straight out of X-files.

Yamina Hakem est experte en business intelligence appliquée à la pharma, fondatrice de GlobalReach BI, et elle accompagne les industriels de santé dans la structuration de leurs données. Elle connaît les promesses de l'IA… et les angles morts. Dans cet épisode, on parle essais cliniques, prédiction des maladies, biais algorithmiques et compétences humaines.À retenir dans cet épisode :- L'IA transforme les essais cliniques en modélisant les profils de patients- Les biais dans les données d'entraînement peuvent fausser les résultats- L'IA n'est pas autonome : elle exécute des consignes humaines- La data de santé est souvent mal structurée et sous-exploitée- L'adoption de l'IA nécessite des compétences hybrides (data + métier)- Il faut des référentiels éthiques clairs pour encadrer l'innovation- La transparence des modèles est une condition de confiance- Les jeunes talents ont un rôle à jouer dans la régulation- L'IA interroge la responsabilité des acteurs : qui décide, qui valide ?- L'intelligence artificielle est un outil, pas une stratégieUn épisode qui remet les pieds sur terre : oui, l'IA a un potentiel énorme dans la santé. Mais il faut des garde-fous, du bon sens, et une exigence collective pour ne pas soigner… à l'aveugle.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint     I promise that I'm not adding "one more thing" to your to-do list. But, the summer typically means a bit of a break from academics for homeschool families. The curriculum is great, but if you child is not prepared for the world when they step out on their own, they'll have a lot of catching up to do, no matter what level of math they achieved, the science experiments you did, or the classic books they've read. Don't get me wrong, those things are fine. But, there is more to life than book knowledge.  There is real life where they'll need to know how to interact, get along with, and function well with others, if for no other reason than for their Christian witness. I'm hoping you have a little more brain space with your usual routine set aside for the summer to focus on teaching and growing soft skills in your homeschooler of any age. I've got a lot of ideas for you...pick 1 or 2 that seem the most important and see how you can be intentional this summer! ♥ Leigh       LITTLE BY LITTLE HOMESCHOOL CONFERENCE TICKETS:  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/conference   GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship   SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal   CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome      Website -  https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter -  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.subscribemenow.com/ Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity  Follow - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Connect - info@littlebylittlehomeschool.com   Listen to these related episodes: 131.

To be a great finance leader, one needs to have both hard and soft skills. Today's guest believes in running towards the hard market, asking dumb questions, and showing up as your whole self at work. Craig Conti is the EVP and CFO of Verra Mobility, the almost $900 million in revenue, publicly-traded company that is responsible for the silent infrastructure behind seamless tolling, traffic enforcement, and smart mobility. Apart from providing a visual breakdown of his approach to mitigating risk, he shares a wealth of wisdom from his years in finance.

In this bonus episode, The Spark, we welcome back Gnome Taylor, senior creative at Grey London, for a lighter, more personal chat. After Monday's powerful conversation on resilience, Gnome returns to answer some of our signature questions—giving us a glimpse of the person behind the job title. From why kindness is the best lesson she's learned in her career, to the odd comfort she gets from even numbers, Gnome shares stories with humour and heart. We talk about the ideas she's proud of (even the ones that never made it), her unexpected Joe Pasquale impression, and why her sock drawer is so meticulously organised it includes a single, unwearable pair. Gnome also opens up about sleep struggles, audiobook obsessions, and what she'd like to see from future male role models. Her answer? Less bravado, more empathy. This is a warm, thoughtful episode that celebrates quirks, creativity, and the quiet power of simply being kind. This season is proudly sponsored by the School of Communication Arts.

In another powerful episode of On The Drive with Cindy Lawrence, we're hitting the gas on one of the most vital—and often overlooked—factors in dealership success: culture.Joining Cindy is the inspiring Amy Davis, founder of Rise Above Life Coach, as they dig deep into what it really means to build and sustain a high-performance team environment. From the front lines of the service drive to the corner office, they explore the importance of putting the right people in the right seats, leading with empathy, and creating spaces where people genuinely want to show up.You'll hear raw stories, real solutions, and a few truth bombs—like why "fake happy" can do more damage than silence, how leadership drives retention, and how something as small as a balloon on your desk can speak louder than a bonus check.This episode is a must-listen for GMs, service managers, advisors, techs—and anyone who's ever asked, "Am I in the right seat?"

CTO Series: Jussi Mononen on the Human Side of Software Development and Technical Leadership In this CTO Series episode, we explore the intersection of technology and people with Jussi Mononen, CTO of CarbonLink. Drawing from his extensive experience as an Agile practitioner and technical leader, Jussi shares valuable insights on effective software development, technical strategy alignment, and the critical human elements that drive successful technology implementations. The Transformative Power of Agile "It's all about people." Jussi's journey as a technology leader was fundamentally shaped when he discovered Agile methodologies. Coming from a background of waterfall-like approaches to software development, the introduction of Agile principles opened up a broader perspective that transformed his view of the profession. What began as technical work creating billing software evolved into a deeper understanding of the collaboration challenges in problem-solving. This shift helped Jussi develop a more humanistic and holistic approach to software development, recognizing that the human dynamics are often more complex than the technical challenges themselves. Every line of code eventually becomes a liability, as software is maintained over decades Software is only truly "done" when you remove the plug and it no longer exists Direct communication with customers is essential for understanding the real problems that need solving Balancing Technical Strategy with Business Needs "Be careful what you choose in terms of technology as you need to maintain it forever—hopefully." Creating a technical strategy that aligns with business objectives while remaining adaptable requires careful consideration of both immediate and long-term factors. Jussi emphasizes the importance of considering maintainability over a decade-long horizon while organizing technology stacks that don't limit organizational agility. When selecting technologies, consider whether you can find people already familiar with your tech stack Evaluate whether your technology choices allow you to fulfill the responsibilities your customers pay you to handle Be prepared to abandon technologies that aren't working, despite the sunk cost Structure your technical organization to maximize speed and adaptability Fostering Collaboration Between Tech and Business "It's not about 'who wins,' it's about making good decisions." Effective collaboration between technical and business units is built on foundations of respect and trust. As a self-described optimist about humanity, Jussi approaches cross-functional work by giving respect to colleagues and trusting them to make sound decisions within their domains of expertise. Listen carefully to people and make a genuine effort to understand their perspectives Focus on making well-considered decisions rather than striving for theoretical "best" decisions Remember that people develop software, not processes or tools—maximize each team member's potential Create environments where differing viewpoints are valued as inputs to better decision-making Strategic Roadmapping and Adaptability "We constantly seek information about what might be changing." Maintaining a clear vision of the future while remaining adaptable is a critical balancing act for technology leaders. Jussi's approach involves maintaining a rolling two-quarter roadmap that provides directional clarity while incorporating new information and signals from various sources. Review and revise roadmaps weekly to incorporate new information Use tools like Trello to maintain lists of priorities and possibilities Actively seek diverse signals about changing requirements and technologies Use the roadmap to communicate investment priorities to stakeholders like the board Overcoming Complex Technical Challenges "Someone needs to give enough love to the items in the backlog." The most significant challenge in Jussi's career came during a 4.5-year project reimplementing critical university systems that had been in use for over 20 years. This complex undertaking highlighted the importance of people skills alongside technical capabilities when managing diverse stakeholders with conflicting needs. Be prepared to handle conflicting needs and requirements from different stakeholders Establish a shared direction before attempting to solve detailed technical challenges Recognize that many critical challenges in large projects are about people, not technology Give proper attention to backlog items to ensure they receive the consideration they deserve Leadership Philosophy and Learning "Choose the context more accurately. Involve yourself with people you look up to." Rather than pointing to a single book that influenced his approach to technical leadership, Jussi emphasizes the importance of context and learning from those around you. His leadership philosophy centers on carefully selecting environments with admirable people and absorbing knowledge through direct experience and observation. Understand the specific context you're operating in before applying generic principles Surround yourself with people whose approach and values you respect Learn continuously from the practical experiences of peers and colleagues About Jussi Mononen Jussi is a problem solver, programmer and business-to-technology translator.

In this episode, I'm talking about what it really takes to win as a professional service entrepreneur. I'm talking to coaches, consultants, lawyers, doctors—anyone who sells their expertise. A lot of people in these spaces are messing up, not because they're bad at their work, but because they're focused on the wrong stuff. Your skills aren't the problem—it's that you're not fully serving what your clients actually want. I'll break down how to shift that and get your business on track.
