Soft Skills

Soft skills are a combination of people skills, character and personality traits, social skills, communication, and attitudes among others,  that enable people to navigate their environment, work well with others, perform well, and achieve their goals with complementing hard skills.

Soft Skills is a composite word that can be broken down as follows:

Skill

The term "skill" emphasizes practical functionality and refers to a specific ability to accomplish tasks. In this context, "skill" is understood as the capability to proficiently perform challenging actions.

Soft

The term "soft" is the opposite of "hard" and pertains to the non-cognitive qualities in individuals. Soft skills, which include personal attributes essentials for tasks like teamwork and motivation, are often not evaluated because they are subjective in nature.
