Companies in the U.S. spent $87.6 billion on training in 2018 and a fair amount of that was wasted, according to Forbes1. By emphasizing specific soft skills in your corporate training program, you can optimize your training investment and significantly improve your return on investment.
Many corporate training programs are rich in technical skills. However, employees need more than just hard skills to do their job confidently, fully contribute to a company, obtain a promotion, and reach career goals. They also need in-demand soft skills training. In fact, “57 percent of leaders say soft skills are more important than hard skills,” per LinkedIn2.
