The Power of Human Skills

In this episode, we explore human skills — communication, teamwork, empathy, creativity, and other so-called “soft skills” — that are proving just as essential as technical and professional knowledge in both everyday life and the workplace. Together with two experienced Award leaders, we discuss how to develop these skills, why they matter, and their impact on personal and professional growth. This episode opens a wider conversation on human skills. Guests: Gabriella Grech is a Bronze, Silver and Gold Award holder from Gibraltar. She works as a secondary school Physics and Maths teacher and volunteers as an Award Leader and Supervisor at a local centre. In 2025, she represented Gibraltar at the International Gold Event and Forum in Nigeria. John Vincent teaches IGCSE and IB Biology at the Edron Academy in Mexico. He restarted the Duke of Edinburgh's Award at Edron and supports students on their Adventurous Journeys. Prior to Mexico, John worked in Peru for 8 years, running the Duke of Edinburgh's Award, the Outdoor Education programme, and teaching Biology.  Mariana Roa is the Award’s Global Advocacy Manager. She built her career representing her home country, Mexico, at the United Nations and other International Organisations in Geneva - experience that now shapes her work championing the Award at the world stage Hosted by Oksana Dobrovolska, Communications Officer at The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award Foundation Stay in touch with us on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/intaward] | Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/international_award/] | LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-duke-of-edinburgh%27s-international-award-foundation]  Find us on Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/1a9B85GjpSCk9n2JuEK8ng?si=d5f2fc3eab454776], Amazon Music [https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/0b8c93de-2f13-4514-ac2d-f0ef8d14fe07/beyond-the-award] and Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-the-award/id1872993445]

Emerald is a trailblazing Nigerian Machine Learning Engineer, educator, and proud holder of both the Gold and Silver Duke of Edinburgh’s International Awards.
