Soft skills are essential for every team

Whether you’re presenting to stakeholders, managing workloads or solving challenges, our series of short online courses have been designed to help staff, volunteers and leaders in charities or social purpose organisations to build these, often overlooked, essential skills.

You are welcome to attend as many sessions as you like. However, we believe, you will reinforce and best develop your skills by attending all four.

  • Enhance communication and teamwork

  • Improve problem-solving and decision-making

  • Increase personal confidence and professional effectiveness
