"Talent is Not Enough" is a common phrase uttered by leaders and authors of business books. The essence of this claim is that technical skills are insufficient to propel one's career. In this seminar, you will be introduced to a comprehensive inventory of personal and professional skills that have proven to distinguish people as star performers. Often called the "soft skills," these learned abilities translate to "hard" results - more credibility, influence, better assignments, promotions,...and more. During this session, you will complete this inventory of skills, which you will then use to establish a personal action plan to expand your capabilities.
