This episode focuses on the role of soft and transferable skills in health and safety, particularly for those navigating a move into a new industry. IOSH Future Leaders Jenny Storeham and Konstantinos Mermigkas explain that while technical knowledge is important, much of the role relies on listening, communication, and building trust. Their key message is reassuring: you don’t need to know everything on day one – your existing skills and mindset are what enable you to succeed.
