也許您經常聽到，在職場上工作，硬實力固然重要，但軟技巧 (soft skill)對於升遷或者工作的保障更有其獨特的重要性。軟技巧的精進，如同學習做人，是一個長期而一直有改進空間的修練。在異國文化生活，更有許多需要注意的事項可以向達人討教。
今年中工會希望多舉辦幾場軟技巧的教學與研討會。在4月29日，中工會請到Elaine Kung講有效溝通以及個人品牌。Elaine 是中工會達拉斯分會的理事，在公司裡以及達拉斯分會教導增強軟技巧以及領導力多年，還因此得過許多獎，是非常好的講師。我們在去年曾請到她前來灣區演講不同的課題，造成參與聽眾一致的好評。這次研討會是中工會充滿自信的推薦活動。在兩個多小時內，Elaine 將會講解許多內容，例如如何發表反對意見，如何做面試，如何給人留下深刻印象，等等。您學到的技巧將對您未來每天工作上有所幫助，增強您職場實力。這些對您生涯發展將很有助益。這是難得的機會，請別錯過。
