why-are-soft-skills-important?

Elevating your soft skills benefits you personally and professionally.

Because soft skills pertain to the self and how one relates and interacts with others, they are essential for the workplace. Team members that communicate effectively, approach problems creatively and keep themselves accountable work better together and keep business on track.

Outside of the workplace, soft skills are a vital part of personal development. Think of how you react to others in social situations and how you tackle complex problems in your daily life. You likely rely on soft skills to navigate relationships, interactions, and personal tasks.

What is the difference between hard skills and soft skills?

Hard skills are technical, job-specific skills acquired through professional training or education.

Examples: computer programming, data analysis, teaching, sales writing

While hard skills require direct teaching, you may have gained some soft skills through life experiences. However, many people do not actively develop their soft skills through training and education. That’s what we’re trying to change because we see soft skills are equally crucial to hard skills.

Should you put soft skills on your resume?

Employers want to see soft skills on your resume! These skills tell potential employers that you can self-manage, communicate effectively, and form professional working relationships with others.

Businesses need to know that you can be self-directed, dependable, and accountable. Hard skills may tell an employer what tasks you can perform, but soft skills allow them to see what type of team member you will be!

What soft skills do employers look for?

Employers look for different skills depending on the industry, so there’s no concrete list. However, some of the most popular soft skills are:

Active listening
Problem-solving
Creative thinking
Conflict resolution
Self-direction
Communication skills
Teamwork

At gogetter™, we know that this list is far more extensive – that’s why we partner with quality educators who deliver a variety of training courses. With gogetter™, you will showcase an impressive tool kit of valuable soft skills.
