What Life Skills would produce a Great Leader?
That’s the million dollar question!
Soft Skills Training for Students & Teens
Schools are amazing in preparing students with specific and quantifiable knowledge. In order to make global leaders, that’s just not enough.
Hard skills are learned and can be measured by a number. Life Skills and Soft skills are not quantified the same. In fact, you cannot put a number to it, but it’s equally –if not more– important!
CNBC published an article in 2018, advising that top employers such as Google, Apple, and IBM no longer required applicants to have a College Degree. So what are they expecting? They are seeking candidates with hands-on experience. With that in mind, degree or no degree, book-smart or not, what do you think makes a candidate stand out in an interview?

My soft skills coaching style is unique.
I combine coaching techniques with mentoring, life skills and soft skills tools in order to promote a mature thinker. Creating a WHOLE child is my goal. Think of me as an executive coach, doing similar work, only with a younger generation in an academic and social setting.
Young coaching clients and I co-create short and long term GOALS. We also explore avenues such as CAREER paths and PASSIONS, while improving executive functioning skills in management and organizational habits.

Happy Clients
members at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Sharon played games with our participants and gave some fabric examples to them in the workshop. These interactions made the whole workshops more interesting, unlike many which included only sharing or speech by the speaker.
Sharon had taught our members the useful and suitable skills in building up a professional image. What our members learnt will greatly help them in their career development. We all enjoyed the workshop very much. The workshop was really interesting and informative. It was our pleasure to have the chance to organize the workshop with Sharon.
