Intense competition has brought the focus on soft and life skills not only for professional careers but also for personal advancement. This view was expressed by Shalini Sharma, Principal, Apparel Training & Design Centre (ATDC), while addressing the ‘Life &Soft-skills’ workshop conducted by Deloitte professionals in Gurgaon. More than 150 students of ATDC Gurgaon, Rohini, Dilshad Garden centres attended the workshop.
In order to get a winning edge over competitors, people are left with no choice but to add value to their hard skills with soft skills to realise one's true potential, she observed. Keeping the need of the hour in mind, ATDC organized a special workshop on ‘Interpersonal & Soft Skills’ for the students, she added. ATDC is India’s largest vocational training provider for the apparel sector.
The objective of conducting this workshop was to develop and strengthen especially the communication skills of students. Deloitte professionals worked towards providing guidance and direction to students of ATDC for a successful career by leveraging their potential for better career prospects. The highlights of the workshop were time management, interpersonal skills, and resume preparation and interview skills under their ‘counselor’ thread.
