Each level of the Skills Pyramid builds on the one before it. If a young person doesn’t develop core qualities and soft skills first, then even the most impressive job-specific skills won’t get them very far.

What is the Skills Pyramid?
Think of it like building a house. You wouldn’t start with the roof, right? You need a solid foundation first—something strong enough to support everything else.

🔹 Avoiding real conversations – Hiding behind emails instead of picking up the phone.
🔹 Struggling to leave a clear voicemail – Because they’ve never had to.
🔹 Uncomfortable with face-to-face interaction – Lacking the confidence to communicate in real time.

These aren’t niche skills.

This isn’t just about phone calls (I hear similar from Welsh businesses about the lack of emailing skills and inability to communicate across teams etc.)

It’s about communication, confidence, and basic workplace skills that employers expect but aren’t seeing.

Employers want reliable, resilient, adaptable, problem-solvers (among other things), not students who can ace exams and write essays. Yet, we’re still treating grades and quals like golden tickets.

📢 Employers are shouting about skill gaps. Are we listening?

We keep telling young people to “get ready for the future”, but are we actually giving them the skills to thrive in a digital world driven by AI, automation, and constant change?
