Register Now for Ignite Nebraska's Adaptability Soft Skills Training Workshop
The sun will spill through the glass atrium of UNO’s Barbara Weitz Community Engagement Center on Saturday, June 21, 2025, but the real spark inside will come from forty Nebraskans determined to future-proof their careers.
They’ll gather for Ignite Nebraska’s Adaptability Soft Skills Training Workshop, a two-hour, fast-paced master class in staying steady when everything around you shifts.
In 2024 alone, Omaha saw record turnover across tech, healthcare, and logistics as employers raced to keep up with AI-driven workflows and supply-chain surprises. Ignite Nebraska was created for exactly this moment: the nonprofit pairs world-class soft-skills coaching with technical upskilling so people can land high-demand, high-skill, high-paying roles, and keep climbing once they’re hired.
Until now, Ignite’s signature trainings were reserved for program alumni and employer partners. This June marks the first time the public gets a seat at the table, just forty seats, to be exact. That scarcity isn’t a marketing ploy; it’s how Ignite guarantees small-group coaching, instant feedback, and the kind of peer networking that sticks.
Guiding the workshop is Navigator Lynette Ingram, a career-path whisperer known for turning uncertainty into opportunity. Lynette blends scenario-based role-play, rapid-fire reflection prompts, and a few “stretch-and-stress” exercises that mirror real workplace pivots. By noon you’ll leave with a personalized adaptability action plan and a certificate that signals to employers you can thrive in flux.
What You’ll Learn (and Practice)
Mindset Reset – How to reframe unexpected change so it becomes fuel, not friction.
Micro-Pivot Tactics – Quick situational tools for juggling priorities without sacrificing quality.
Communication Under Stress – Techniques to keep feedback constructive when timelines tighten.
Resilience Mapping – A take-home framework to track growth and prevent burnout.
These are the same “secret-sauce” modules that power Ignite’s flagship 10×10 upskilling program, which local employers credit for boosting new-hire retention and cutting onboarding time.
