Employability Improvement
It is a well known fact in the new world that there is a large skill gap between the demand and supply of human resources. Colleges that produce resources with formal curriculum often do not have the task assigned to add necessary skills that are required to contribute in a real life professional environment.
10 years back people used to go through the ups and downs to learn these skills but not many would really succeed and hence can not grow in a professional environment. However, in the current world for next 10 years, a bits and pieces approach is for sure, not going to work.
Students coming out of graduation/post-graduation colleges and the young employees in the corporate need training on ‘Market and Industry Readiness to reduce the employability gap’. The mid to senior managers who are struggling to rise further in their career require training for reducing their ’employability readjustment’.
At Lyceum, we bring in such curated training courses to reduce the ’employability gap’ at various level with seasoned industry veterans who share their real-life leanings and scenarios.
Courses
Conversational & Business English
Conversational & Business English skill is an essential pre-requisite to be successful (in industry or
academia) wherever you are expected to communicate your ideas, thoughts, actions, objections,
conclusions, recommendations etc in pursuit of your business or personal objectives.
Emotional Intelligence
An essential & pre-requisite skill to work in an environment where there are frequent
interactions with others requiring you to understand their actions, words and motivations in
order to deal effectively & not to be emotionally overwhelmed or develop negative thoughts &
emotions that may cloud your judgement and impair your decision-making ability.
Time Management
An essential & pre-requisite skill required to manage such a critical and finite resource as Time.
In today’s globalised and extremely competitive business environment, effective and efficient
consumption and management of time will differentiate between winners and others. If you
respect time (yours and others’), it will pay you back and if you do not, it will leave you behind.
Problem Solving & Decision Making
An essential skill at the workplace, whether you are a leader, decision maker or not. Those with
good problem-solving skills are a valuable and trusted asset in any team – these are the people
who think of new ideas, better ways of doing things, make it easier for people to understand
things or help save customers time and money. Analytical thinking helps in accurately identifying
a real problem in a given situation.
Goal Setting & Value Systems
This course highlights the benefits of setting goals i.e. greater direction, greater focus, increased
productivity, and higher levels of motivation. Setting goals that are specific and measurable can
transform your habits, your mindset, your confidence, and your daily actions. Setting goals helps
trigger new behaviors, helps guides your focus and helps you sustain that momentum in life. You
can’t manage what you don’t measure & you can’t improve what you don’t properly manage.
Career Counselling &
Interview Skills
This course highlights the often under-valued and under-developed set of skills that are crucial
for moving up the career ladder. Creating a personal brand, presenting your strengths, skills &
experiences in written and spoken form are crucial for positioning oneself for a career enhancing
role or assignment. Articulating your value effectively makes the difference between winners
and others.
Cultural Sensitivity
Cultural sensitivity is a set of skills that enables us to learn about and understand people who
are different from ourselves, thereby becoming better able to collaborate with them. A lack of
cultural sensitivity can limit employees’ ability to communicate effectively with different groups
– internally and externally – and can alienate or offend customers, partners and colleagues
working in different regions, countries and cultures.
Conflict Management & Negotiation Skills
Conflict management is the practice of being able to identify and handle conflicts sensibly,
fairly, and efficiently. The aim of conflict management is to enhance learning and group
outcomes, including effectiveness or performance in an organizational setting. Negotiation
skills are inherent qualities that help two or more parties agree to a common logical solution.
The Leadership Ladder
Leadership is a process, not a position. It deals with people and their dynamics, which are constantly
changing. The challenge of leadership is to create change and facilitate growth. These require
movement from one level to the next. This course is based on the principles of John Maxwell’s The
Five Levels of Leadership.
