A summary of what is included
What do we rely on when complexity hits, answers are unclear, and decisions carry real consequences?
In the latest episode of the Atlas Copco Group People Podcast, Cecilia Sandberg, SVP & Chief Human Resources Officer, and Jessica Clarke, Group VP Talent & Learning, explore power skills – judgment, courage, sensemaking and ethical decision‑making. These are the capacities we turn to when situations are uncomfortable, ambiguous, and far from black and white.
Often overlooked or labelled as “soft,” power skills are anything but. The conversation highlights why these skills matter more than ever in today’s complex world – and what happens when they are not trained or supported. From ethical fading and silence to weakened trust and decision‑making, the risks are real. Yet with the right frameworks, reflection and practice, power skills can be strengthened before a crisis hits.
As the episode makes clear, training power skills is not just about individual capability. It is about shaping a culture that is more trustworthy, adaptive, human and future‑ready – where people feel equipped to act with integrity, even under pressure.
Tune in to discover why power skills are essential for navigating complexity, and how practicing values, judgment and courage today prepares us for the decisions of tomorrow.
