What are soft skills? Soft skills have gone through many different names – sometimes they’re now called “durable skills” or “21st century skills”. These “soft skills” are the human qualities that determine our success in work and life – abilities such as establishing a vision, communication, leadership and working with people who have different viewpoints. The real world impact of soft skills Recent studies by Harvard University and the Carnegie Foundation reveal that only 15% of job success comes from technical know-how or, what we would call “hard skills”. An incredible 85% is attributed to having well-honed people skills. Thinking outside the context of work, it often seems that almost all our success can be traced back to strong interpersonal skills. So what constitutes personal success? Strong relationships, enriching experiences, and the ability to make good decisions that benefit us and others. These skills are ever more crucial in a world where loneliness is alarmingly common and where technology often keeps people apart or causes more pain than harmony.
