To build soft skills, employees need to learn and retain information — and apply what they’ve learned in their jobs. The activities in Paycor Paths drive real behavior change by building in real-world practice and reflection alongside learning. Employees learn about a soft skill like feedback, explore how they can improve this skill, and then commit to taking action. After they’ve had a chance to practice in their job, they return to Paths to track what’s working and how they can continue improving.
Paths is built by a team of learning experience designers and researchers. This team tracks the most recent research in management, leadership, adult learning, and behavior change to update and create new Paths. They also conduct original research with employees to include their insights and address real-world challenges.
With Paycor Paths, employees can learn and grow skills in the areas of feedback and communication (examples: coaching and difficult conversations), productivity (examples: time management and goal setting), leader mindset (examples: growth mindset and flexibility), and teamwork and collaboration (examples: connecting a team and facilitating meetings).
