- Abstract
The purpose of this article is to highlight the profound global changes in the use of technology and the nature of work have urgent implications for how we educate young people and prepare them for the labour market. Employers are increasingly looking for youth who are flexible, adaptable, proactive, creative and collaborative, able to cope with industrialization. The Youth Employment Funders Group uses the term „soft skills" to describe a mix of skills (both non-cognitive and cognitive), attitudes, behaviours and mindsets, especially when referring to youth workforce and employment outcomes. In this article, we will look at how to adapt young people to learn the language of a particular job, industry or role is directly related to how smart they will sound and how well they will work in an environment and dramatically improve the chances of finding jobs because companies will first choose someone who needs less time to get them to speed.
