Don't just teach it.

Dare them to do it.

SkillVibe’s “30 Dares” is a structured, gamified soft-skills ladder for future talent programs.

 

Real-world habits built through reps and progressive discomfort.

The Real Problem

!

Programs see the same gaps every year.

Future talents are smart. They're motivated. But when it comes to soft skills in real situations...

Students & graduates sound generic in interviews (“I’m a hard worker…”) and can’t give crisp, specific examples.

They wait until the last minute to get feedback on their CV/portfolio — usually right before a deadline.

Networking feels like “DM panic” — they overthink messages to alumni/recruiters and end up sending nothing.

They consume career content (videos, templates, posts)… but freeze in real moments like career fairs, interviews, or first outreach calls.

30 Dares. One Skill. Real Change.

Each future talent gets a 30-level ladder per skill. They unlock dares progressively — small, observable, measurable actions grounded in neuroscience. No coaching required. No heavy setup. Just reps that rewire behavior by playing the dares with their peers.

Micro Discomfort

​

Tiny, low-risk actions that break the ice.

1–5

Moderate Exposure

 

Slightly harder reps with real challenge.

6 -15

Direct Challenge

​

Challenging situations that build confidence.

16 - 25

Peak Exposure

​

High-stakes actions that cement the habit.

26 - 30

Here's what the dares actually look like.

The Interrupt Challenge

Level (3): Micro Discomfort                                                                                                                                           XP :   20

Instructions

Start telling your peer about a hobby you enjoy. At a random moment, they will interrupt you with: 'Can I offer some feedback on how you're explaining this?' Your job is to stop immediately, stay calm, and say, 'Yes, please do.' Then use your non-defensive listening face.

Why it works (Science)

This dare practices emotional regulation during an unexpected interruption, which is a common trigger for defensiveness.

Why future talent actually change behavior here.

"Soft skills are built by reps, not advice."

We leverage neuroplasticity through repeated, small-stakes exposure. By moving from "Micro Discomfort" to "Peak Exposure," we rewire the brain's response to social stress—turning fear into familiarity.
