Why Training Your Soft Skills Transforms Your Life - All Personal with Emma-Sue Prince


Listen Later

Emma Sue Prince is a qualified teacher AND a management development trainer, author and business consultant. 

Her  expertise lies in soft skills, trainer training, materials design,  qualification development and management development. 

She provides employability, soft skills and education consultancy in emerging  economies all over the world working on large-scale projects in India,  Malaysia, Tanzania and in Bangladesh in partnership with the Department  of International Development and the British Council. 

Emma Sue developed Unimenta, an organization that makes it easier for teachers and practitioners to deliver soft skills and personal development.

She  is author of The Advantage, a book published by Pearson Business and  translated into eight languages. 

The Advantage redefines soft skills as  personal competences we can all develop and nurture: adaptability,  empathy, critical thinking, integrity, optimism, being proactive and  resilience.

For me, this conversation today re-iterated the idea that  soft skills are not soft at all, they are essential. Because when we  really start to work on our skills, we are, in fact, working on  ourselves, so we transform – and we bring self-awareness in our life.  And it’s self-awareness that leads to mindfulness, in any way we might  want to define it for ourselves.

Because, after all, our lives don’t run by general recipes. We run them in moments and quiet thoughts which  make for our reality. So I leave you with Emma-Sue’s inspirational  quote: ‘Never be afraid to let go of the good in order to go for the  great’. 

Until next time, good bye and, of course, please make it All  Personal.
