Soft skills are those personal attributes that can enhance a person’s job behavior and career potential. Such people skills as: how to listen effectively, creating a reputation, knowing what is expected of you, and both verbal and written communications, just to name a few.
Your soft skills can determine how successful you are in the workplace today. Soft skills complement hard skills which are those abilities that appear on your resume, such as your education, experience and current level of expertise.
Why are soft skills needed in business today?
Employers now value soft skills so much they are part of the interview process. This is because they have determined that soft skills are an excellent indicator of future job performance. To see a video on a recent study on the needs of soft skills, click here (Study).
