Big thanks to Emma Kangis and Rose Dent for hosting this discussion last week on the importance of soft skills. Often underestimated... soft skills such as communication, teamwork and problem-solving are crucial to enhancing aspiring investment professionals abilities to work effectively in a team, adapt to changes and navigate complex work environments and we know our 2024 interns benefitted hugely from this opportunity to learn and grow 💚🌿
