"You can have all the AIs in the world, but if you can't get five people to work together and collaborate, then you cannot go anywhere," Nilekani is quoted as saying to MoneyControl, a media outlet. Great to see Nandan Nilekani, chairman and co-founder of Infosys, an IT services leader with a workforce of more than 300,000, share his perspectives on why empathy, collaboration and creativity are critical professional soft skills that will differentiate the best talent in the age of AI. We are with you Nandan! #collaboration #softskills #futureofwork

𝐖𝐇𝐘 𝐓𝐄𝐂𝐇 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐒 𝐍𝐄𝐄𝐃 𝐇𝐔𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐀𝐈    As global demand for technology talent grows, many emerging market economies are vying for valuable outsourced software development opportunities to drive growth. Sri Lanka has seen its IT sector expand by 300% over the last few years, with companies such as eBay, PayPal, Emirates, and Expedia Group, tapping its skilled tech workforce. As skilled tech workforce hubs sprout up around the globe, how can countries ensure they offer an edge over the competition? Join us in Colombo this week to hear a panel of tech leaders discuss the edge soft skills bring to software engineers in the age of AI.  Attendance is free!

Employers have been struggling for decades with onboarding new hires and accelerating their productivity and engagement. 

𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐭 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝. 𝐖𝐡𝐲?     Skills such as adaptability, being able to think critically, communicate persuasively, be self-aware - these are capabilities that are interrelated and deeply nuanced.     This People Matters article highlights why effective soft skills development is elusive. As 2025 kicks off, and learning strategies for the year get set, many organizations will continue with their status quo default of one-way instructor led sessions that are recipes of ‘quickly forgotten information’, as Harvard Business Review says. Yet others will tick the easy check box of LinkedIn Learning, or some other content library with 20,000 options that fail to deliver outcomes of behaviour change.     𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐠𝐚𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧?    Read more - https://lnkd.in/gx2sJ75g #softskills #hardskills #learning #training #skilling #skills #edtech #communication #collaboration #criticalthinking
