About this listen

Even with comparable soft skills, why are women not considered as supervisor material? Preconceived notions can play an essential role in the low number of women supervisors on factory floors.

But, even for those who do become supervisors, these perceptions impact how competent they’re believed to be by others on the floor. That’s just how factory floors function. However, that too, can change! Training in soft skills has been shown to lead to direct improvement in confidence. Skills like improved communication and time management can have a tremendous impact on the way the garment sector functions.   

In this episode, we hear from experts- both from research backgrounds and the blue-collar workforce, as to how soft skills can help women climb the ladder in factories.
