Every year, the Global Shapers Hub of San Francisco tackle one or more projects to make a positive impact on San Francisco. On October 2, 2016, the Hub hosted Project Pitch Day to pitch the projects that are currently underway to our community as a call to action to contribute time, resources, and ideas to the projects. This year, we are collaborating with Rotary International, MEDA, yearup, and LinkedIn to help train under-represented youth in the soft skills that are also important workplace skills.

2. Soft skills matter
58% of employees who
showcased a soft skill on their
LinkedIn profiles were hired

3. Unfortunately, we don’t often “teach” soft skills
And this leads to a problem -- everyone needs “soft skills,” but not everyone
gets to acquire them through school or work experience
