As the market is recovering from its deep recession and demand for fresh recruits with MBA or Engineering is picking up in the IT/ITES sectors, the HR manager at MNC and other Indian companies are equally busy in hiring softskills trainers to train the fresh batch of recruits. Since most of companies have realized that no matter which ever the professional ground a candidate may come from, the need to fill the softskills gap has become very essential to meet company expectation when it comes to interacting or delivering value to their customers.
On the contrary, when you look at these trends of consuming softskills as an additional training to become full fledged professional, why this gap is not addressed before the graduation or at the curriculum level especially when this gap is so prominent?
Unlike in the west where the student should pick up the softskills like business communication, leadership, behavioral, teamwork, and corporate ethics independent of their professional choice, I am still surprised why academicians in India have not paid attention to this yet.
As more Universities are being privatized and many Institutions are going for foreign collaboration to pick up the latest curriculum and teaching methodologies, hopefully they will make it mandatory for every student to absorb these softskills before they graduate as well rounded professional ready to be absorbed in the Industry. The softskills curriculum should include 1 semester worth of course work encompassing all types of soft skills like communication, behavioral, body language, phone ethics, teamwork, conflict resolution, leadership, and business communications. The MBA institutions can go one step forward and include International culture and customer behavior specific to countries with strong ties to India regarding business like Japan, South Korea, China, and Germany. For the benefit of the Industry, it would be better to standardize the training content across the country so that basic needs of the employers would be fulfilled independent of where the students come from.
The students can search softskills Training based on training content, location, price, and provider ratings as well. If the students find softskills courses of their choice, they can request for registration or send enquiry regarding how to enroll for the classes.
