Do you want your analysts to have a greater impact on your organisation?
​
Our unique, online interactive soft-skills courses help to improve the impact and productivity of your analysts, increasing both their profile and value they deliver to the organisation.
Who We Are
Sophic is led by Steve Hulmes, an experienced analytical manager and coach. Steve has trained and coached over 1,000 analysts from some of the UK's largest organisations – arming them with the soft skills necessary to engage and influence all types of decision-makers and stakeholders.
​
"Technical excellence alone will not make you a great analyst. The best analysts I have worked with have a blend of technical and soft skills, which enables them to interact effectively with the rest of the business, in turn improving their influence and demonstrating greater value to the organisation." - Steve Hulmes
How Soft-Skills Training Helps
We provide specific training to complement your analysts' technical training – focusing on soft skills that enable any analytics professional to engage more effectively with the rest of their organisation whilst addressing some of the key challenges and issues analysts commonly face.
​
Our courses are delivered in a workshop format and have been designed specifically for analysts by analysts – they are practical, interactive, fun and focus on areas that are key to enabling your analytical team to add real value to the organisation.
