The importance of soft skills in today’s digital day and age cannot be emphasized enough. Soft skills are that boutique where-in people will at least be poised to visit your shop. Once they are in your shop then don’t you think half the job is done? Your product should be strong enough that goes without saying. In digital language, Soft skills enables potential lead to go to play store and download your product, however, only the product user interface, honesty and quality will convert this lead to your consumer and life time opportunity. Undoubtedly soft skills have to go hand in hand with technical skills you cannot be only carrot and stick approach. Rather it should be “What you see you get”. Below are few most important skills set one should try to in calculate over and over. It’s alright to deviate but it is important to realign.

Confidence
If you are a leader then confidence in self but more importantly confidence in your team is of utmost importance. Leaving the execution to your executives while providing the directions as and when needed is the best way to extract the productivity from yourself or your team. Working at any level, it doesn’t matters, what matters is your ability to express at times. And it comes with experience, but more so by being confident of who you are.

Action
Your behavior should reflect your words spoken. A deviation in both will always make you sound fake and unreal. Being human we tend to have different personality while interacting with different people. However, the core values in those multiple roles you play are still somewhere deeply the same. What we are speaking here is about that core values. We may think, but who knows? Do remember words may lie, but actions never. It will impact your surroundings more than your words. So be careful. Always try to self-introspect.

Patience
While we try to be best every time, but failing and climbing is all the life about. The period between these two is known as patience. Don’t worry, if you feel you made a mistake, you took wrong decision, you should have been better, you could have tried that? Instead, realign yourself, reinvent and move forward. Lying in the mud of guilt or arrogance both are not healthy. Arrogance and guilt both will only pave the way for your downfall. In times of good thing, say aloud thank you to each and everyone. And its times of failing, say to yourself, good try, but can be better. The mistake we do is we rush for things. We think why not now? Whereas in reality there is no answer for WHY? But there is always response for hard work.

So from now on, always wear your CAP.

Thank you.đź‘Ťâś”
