Technical expertise is more valuable than ever for accounting, managers, and finance professionals. You need to constantly stay on top of accounting best practices, legislative mandates, and digital trends like big data and cloud services. But in the rush to remain current and relevant, don’t overlook other skill sets; you need to develop hard and soft skills. Marketing managers should be able to communicate ideas, expectations, and requests clearly and effectively.

They should excel in both organizational and interpersonal communication, which means they must be able to share information in both large groups and in one-on-one conversations with also the ability to manage multiple responsibilities at once by focusing on one task while keeping track of others, involving switching back and forth between tasks and effectively performing different tasks rapidly one right after the other. For example, answering the phone in a busy reception area in between attending to clients or answering emails demonstrates multitasking skills.

Employers want to hire employees that acquire soft and hard skills abilities because they can delegate more tasks to them, saving on the costs associated with hiring another person. Showing how well they acquire and demonstrate these skills makes an employee valuable. This course is therefore intended to give an insight and basic training in soft and hard skills, accounting, human resources, marketing, and managerial skills for increased productivity.
