Employers have expressed concerns about the scarcity of soft skills among job applicants and new hires. To address this, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Workforce Development Partners have developed a comprehensive soft-skills curriculum, Working Smart: Soft Skills for Workplace Success, consisting of five modules with 16 lessons delivered over 24 hours. This curriculum enhances both work and life skills, starting with self-awareness and self-management and progressing to topics such as workplace ethics, communication, and problem-solving.

Local organizations preparing job seekers for new opportunities are integrating Working Smart into their programs. Soon, employers will encounter resumes featuring Working Smart certification, signaling enhanced readiness for job demands beyond technical skills.

Employers stand to benefit not only from hiring Working Smart-certified candidates but also from improving current employees' soft skills through internal training, which can boost productivity and reduce turnover.

Boldly Evolve offers tailored soft-skills training modules to meet organizational needs. Employers can opt for specific lessons or have their staff trained to deliver Working Smart, enhancing onboarding, professional development, or performance improvement efforts.
