professional

TRANSFERABLE AND
COMMUNICATION SKILLS
Transferrable skills:
• Teamwork. This is one of the most important skills thanks to
which you can influence the knowledge and skills of people
cooperating with each other.
• Troubleshooting. Ability to identify the causes of problems and
adapt solutions to the situation. Choosing a strategy is crucial to
achieving improvement
• Verbal communication. The essence of successful communication
is communicating in a simple and understandable way.
HOW TRANSFERABLE AND
COMMUNICATION SKILLS CAN SUPPORT
PROFESSIONALS IN THE WORKPLACE

Transferable skills enable the transfer of practical knowledge to


people who require additional training or guidance to improve
their performance.
Where I work, a scorecard is used to show the strengths and
weaknesses of people performing given tasks.
Assign a worker with the best work results and effective
communication skills to the position of group leader allows the
team to quickly improve the standards of services provided.
PROBLEM SOLVING WITH TRANSFERABLE AND
COMMUNICATION SKILLS AT MY WORKPLACE

• Being one of the best performing drivers according to the score card, I was assigned to train a new
employee to provide him with all practical information relevant to the nature of the work performed.
During the training, I paid attention to important aspects of critical moments whose mistakes lead to
receiving negative grades.
• During the training, I checked several times whether the person I was training understood the typical
problems he might encounter, checking whether he was able to recognize such situations and what to do
in them to perform the task according to the company’s expectations.
• In this way, we could directly influence the effectiveness of transferring skills for a person who needs in-
depth training.
• I use interpersonal skills that help recognize needs and personal barriers by treating each person in the
team individually, which is important in order to avoid conflicts and achieve intended goals more
quickly.
THE IMPORTANCE OF FEEDBACK
IN MY WORKPLACE

• After completing the training, I could find out from the score card
whether the person I trained was working in accordance with the
practical instructions he received. Based on the feedback, I could
check what I should focus more attention on during subsequent
training sessions, or whether I should intensify the training to
eliminate the problem.

• The more feedback received, the more data based on results can be
obtained towards achieving better outcomes.
THE IMPORTANCE OF FEEDBACK AND
PDP
 Feedback is crucial to achieving both business-wide and personal professional development.
It should be taken into account that feedback cannot be targeted at only one group of
stakeholders.
 Critical thinking is crucial too. Development planning without feedback is a waste of time. If
you keep doing the same thing and expecting different results, it's just not smart.
 Ignoring the facts can lead to lasting problems that cannot be removed without a complete
modernization of one of the stakeholders, which may prevent the organization from
developing.
 To achieve the intended goals, the organization must be balanced in their assessment of each
stakeholder to contribute to the overall improvement of the organization's effectiveness.
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN

A personal development plan is important to avoid stagnation and


to achieve the intended goals at a given time.
• It allows us to clearly define what we want to improve.
• It determines the time needed to achieve the intended goal.
• Builds an action plan.
• It helps us to understand where improvement and consistency are
required.
• Establishes long-term career goals.
