Kisima Work-Readiness Summit a Smashing Success

The Kisima work readiness summit was a smashing success as we received over 100 delegates. Work readiness skills are sometimes called soft skills, employability skills. These abilities help employees learn how to interact with supervisors and co-workers. They help reinforce the importance of timeliness and build an understanding of how we are perceived by others. Employers value employees who can communicate effectively and act professionally. No matter what technical skills a job may require, every job requires good social skills/interpersonal skills. The Kisima workreadiness summit was designed to cover the topics below.

• Understanding one’s personality type/style
• Interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence
• Pillars of excellence and professionalism
• Planning and organizing (time management)
• Managing self -development
• Business writing and communication
• Acing that job interview
• Financial savvy (financial literacy) / young workers and money
