What Are Your Career Options as a Certified Soft Skills Trainer?
  • Opening Intro -

    The importance of soft skills in any industry has immensely increased over the years.

    Today, apart from the necessary technical skills, every employer is asking for the essential range of soft skills like great communication, teamwork, problem-solving, organization, stress management, critical thinking, and more.

-------------------------------------

And this is why there has been an increase in soft skills training. Most employers have now outsourced soft skills trainers to up-skill their team’s soft skills, while some have even made their employees take up necessary certifications to become a certified soft skills trainer.

If you have taken the training to become a soft skills trainer, here are six lucrative career choices for you!

Personality Development Trainer

A professional personality development trainer enhances one’s self-awareness to help one achieve personal goals and overcome challenges that hinder self-growth.

These personal goals can relate to anything within the areas of emotional and personal growth, including business, finance, health, wellness, and relationships. These trainers are also known as life coaches because they guide people on how to move forward in their life.

To become an excellent personality development trainer, one needs to possess several soft skills like empathy, leadership, teamwork, communication, and problem-solving. Hence, becoming a certified soft skills trainer can help you get closer to your dream of enhancing someone’s personality.

Public Speaking Coach

Did you know that approximately 25.3% of people say they are not confident enough to speak in public? This data was collected by Chapman University when they conducted a survey in 2014. Also known as glossophobia, the fear of public speaking affects your self-esteem and hinders your personal and professional growth.

A public speaking coach can help people with extreme fear of speaking in front of a crowd. As a coach, you can guide individuals to improve their public speaking skills with body language cues, strong delivery, and persuasive arguing.

Etiquette Coach

An etiquette coach is another lucrative career choice you can pursue after becoming a certified soft skills trainer. As an etiquette trainer, you get to guide your clients on how to behave appropriately in a business and social setting.

Your clients can range from working professionals or jobseekers to entrepreneurs and elites who want to groom their behavior for business meetings and parties. While an etiquette coach can consult and cover various areas, most consultants focus on specific areas like interview etiquette, corporate etiquette, or dining etiquette.

Communication Coach

There are several individuals, especially working professionals, who need help to conduct effective communication with anyone. This challenge can be due to their introverted personality, language barrier, or cultural difference.

And due to these reasons, there can be a lack of communication that could negatively impact the individual’s professional growth.

By becoming a communication coach, you can help people who have trouble communicating, identify their shortcomings and help them improve their communication to express themselves effectively and confidently.

You can work with your clients closely and assess their needs, understand what is causing their communication gap, and help them conquer fears.

Confidence Coach

As a confidence coach, you can empower your clients who are shy and limited due to their fears, self-esteem, shyness, and beliefs. You can help your clients by bringing them out of their shells and guiding them to a more confidence-filled life that can help them progress further in their careers and personal lives.

Corporate Trainer

Corporate businesses always search for excellent corporate trainers to help their employees improve their soft skills. As a corporate trainer, you can help these firms and businesses enhance their employees’ soft skills by overcoming the gap essential for surviving and succeeding in the business environment.

You can help the employees by teaching them job-oriented skills that are not technical. For example, business writing, communication, and presentation skills.

Conclusion

Whether you are a trained soft skills trainer or on the path to becoming one, it is always good to have a list of your potential career choices! Go ahead and become certified and enjoy a profession that’s going to be rewarding.
