In 2011, Patrick helped found IITTI (International Soft Skills Standards & Testing), a non-profit helping companies in finding new employees with good soft skills (good people skills), using a standard measurement called 'World Civility Index'.This Index is somewhat similar to credit rating, but instead of measuring how well a person can pay his bills, it measures a person's manners! Qualities like business etiquette, empathy, intercultural awareness.The concept is that job-seekers can get the credential based on the World Civility Index, as proof, to show to employers everywhere!From an employer's point of view, they get to raise company culture, with zero expenditure, simply by requesting job-applicants to have this credential, before coming on board. The Index shows a concrete measurement of how much a company cares about people skills and civility.Employees earn personal World Civility Index "points" by reading articles, watching videos, or attending seminars. They can display their own score in an app to show off to their bosses.Furthermore, a company can display a single "average" World Civility Index number for the whole company in a dashboard to give the CEO and management team some idea where they are at. A company can also show off this Index number in their ESG (environmental, social, governance) report to eliminate any suspicion of greenwashing.The World Civility Index is now a part of UN Sustainable Development.

At the beginning of 2018, Patrick successfully established an IITTI-sanctioned, independent, non-profit called ISSTA (International Soft Skills Trainer Accreditation) for the licensing of IITTI Trainers in China. In 2019, this expanded to the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia, and in 2021 further expanded around the globe.

A consortium of businesses, NGOs and governments for creating a 21st-century curriculum focusing on soft skills based on the IITTI World Civility Index credentialing standard ecosystem. The motivation is to provide the education for young people in the face of a world of AI, robots and driver-less cars. Instead of seeing the world with less employment opportunities, the 'Future of Work Global' curriculum will focus on:1.) cultivating hobbies2.) learning how to talk to old people3.) learning how to handle boredomIn turn, this allows young people to "work" based on hobbies and interests, communicate better with their seniors where new opportunities could be discovered, and have the grit to see hardship as growth.Companies get to participate by embarking on their own civility training where proceeds are fed into the curriculum-building for the youth. In doing so, a company can do good for its company culture, raise their ESG (environmental, social, governance) rating, and good for society at the same time. Feeding three birds with one seed!
