he world of work has changed for good. At first, we thought the changes to our work lives brought on by the pandemic would be temporary. But now it’s clear that they are here to stay. Leaders must accept these challenges head-on. And that means considering a new set of top leadership development challenges. We conducted a survey with business and HR leaders from more than 100 companies about their top priorities to recover from the pandemic. The results revealed that leadership development is at the top of the list. Nearly 75% of respondents said they are prioritizing development because their leaders will need different skills to navigate recovery and thrive in the future.

4. Training And Development
Companies face a shortage of passion in the workforce.
Statistics show, 13.9% of employees demonstrate the type of
passion to take on challenges, push boundaries, and
connect with others to develop better ideas and more
creative approaches. As we talk about skills gaps and
workforce shortages, new ways of working, tapping into
core human capabilities, and the growing need for workers
to own their learning and careers, this lack of passion
should cause some alarm. The passion of the employee is a
key part of the motivation needed for learning new skills,
tools, and approaches, for taking on difficult or ambiguous
challenges.
Without that passion, companies may struggle—and so will
workers.

change.

a business. It helps to acquire assets, attract

7. Soft Skills Training
Soft skills, also known as power skills or human skills, are ways of thinking and
being that allow us to manage our mental health as well as interact with and
navigate through social situations with others. Soft skills training is the number one
priority for Leadership and Development leaders at companies across industries.
And for good reason. Rapid tech innovation causes business needs to change so
rapidly, and skill shelf life continues to shrink as a result. Enhance your staff's
capabilities with our proven soft skills training program.

8. Soft Skills Training
Communication
Listening. We take it for granted that we all can listen but most
people don't practice active listening. Coaching isn't just about
recognizing the behaviors to move employees from ordinary to
extraordinary and exceptional.
Self Management
Self-management skills help workers stay productive and
autonomous, reducing workplace friction and the need for
micromanagement. With the rise of the modern hybrid
working landscape, improving employees' self-management
skills can be vital for business success.
Conflict Resolution
Conflict management skills help minimize the negative impacts of
workplace conflicts on you, the people involved, and your whole
team. They're basically what you would do when you sense a
disagreement coming on with a friend or partner, but applied to
the workplace.
Business Etiquette
Business etiquette refers to accepted rules for behavior and
communication in a professional environment. It affects
relationships between coworkers, managers, and clients, which
can impact the health of an organisation and its culture

9. Customer Service Management
The goal of having good customer skills is to make a
community feel important, and for a nonprofit, satisfying their
community needs to be a top priority. This satisfaction leads to
loyalty, participation in fundraising campaigns, and greater
numbers of volunteers.
Nonprofits use CRM software to better organize data, manage
their supporter relationships more effectively, and practice
more efficient and successful fundraising. Since CRMs
consolidate data, all sources can communicate to give
nonprofits a comprehensive understanding of their donor
relationships. Understanding the value of CRM, Customer
Service Management (CSM), is extremely necessary to close
the "back door" and retain clients/customers. Customer
success management is crucial for many businesses and
nonprofits specifically since we rely on customer relationships.
