Soft Skills are personal attributes that influence how well you can work or interact with others. These skills make it easier to form relationships with people, create trust and dependability, and lead teams.
At a company you might be negotiating to win a new contract, presenting your new idea to colleagues, networking for a new job and so on.. Outside of office the most crucial – Communication skill is used to build relations, express oneself, resolve conflicts…
We use soft skills in our daily lives and developing this area will help you win more people, business and accelerate your career progression. They are used in both professional and personal lives.
At the World Economic Forum – Future of Jobs report suggested that by 2025, complex problem-solving, critical thinking, creativity, people management, emotional intelligence, would be among the most important skills required at workplaces.
The importance of these soft skills is often undervalued, and there is far less training provided for them as compared to hard skills.
Organizations seem to EXPECT people know how to behave on the job and the importance of skills such as taking initiative, communicating effectively and listening, which often is not the case.
To bridge the chasm and gaps between skills imparted by vocational training schools and the abilities industries look for in potential employees, governments are rolling out plans to top-up the existing syllabus with more emphasis on skill training and development from early education and make them ready for the modern workplace. No matter how educated a person is, one must always be ready to acquire new skills. He said skill, re-skilling and upskilling is the only way to remain relevant in the ever changing market scenario.
My students often ask me, “Times are changing too fast. Studies, business, markets and opportunities are so dynamically changing. It’s hard to remain relevant”
My answer to them is “Skill, Re-skill and Upskill. To keep learning new skills is to re-skill and continuing to scale it up is to upskill”. It is something which you give yourself, something that is priceless, timeless and keeps getting better and better with time. It is unique and makes you different from the rest. And as we Say “ITS ALL ABOUT YOU”
It makes you self-reliant, self-employable much more confident and be ready for the global market.
