We are pleased to announce that our Conference “The Rise of Soft Skills”, organised by SafeMetrix together with Youngship Cyprus, took place on Friday October 4, at Columbia Plaza, Limassol with great success.
More than 100 guests, consisting of various industry professionals, came together on an evening of valuable discussions and networking opportunities and to share their views on the topic of soft skills.
The event featured highly esteemed speakers; Shipping Deputy Minister Ms Natasa Pilides, a world-renowned speaker, author and trainer Michael R. Virardi and the product manager of SafeMetrix Ms Luiza Shahbazyan.
Each presenter shared their extremely insightful ideas and their respected expertise on the emerging importance and the impact of soft skills in the maritime industry.
