What is a soft skill?
A "soft skill" refers to personal competencies that are not linked to specific technical knowledge, but rather to the way a person interacts with others and manages his or her own emotions. These skills are often linked to personality and interpersonal skills, and are considered essential in many work environments and social situations.
Here are two examples of soft skills: Communication: This is the ability to convey ideas clearly, listen actively and adapt to a variety of audiences. This includes both verbal and non-verbal communication. For example, being able to effectively present an idea to a group or have a productive conversation with a colleague. Time management: This skill involves knowing how to organize and prioritize tasks to maximize efficiency and meet deadlines. It includes planning, goal setting and the ability to avoid distractions. For example, completing a project before the deadline while balancing other responsibilities, or knowing how to delegate tasks appropriately.
These skills are often contrasted with "hard skills", which are technical and domain-specific skills, such as computer programming or accounting. Soft skills, on the other hand, are transferable between different professions and industries.
