Soft Skills Invesment

I attended a women’s networking function this morning and one of the speakers shared the following with us.  He is  Andre du Toit, find him on Facebook, he is the Big Positive Guy.  So I am not taking credit for the insights as they are not solely mine.  Five key soft skills that one needs to develop in order to succeed and make one’s way to the top, whatever your top looks like.

These skills can help you to become a respected leader and at the very least help you to become a better version of yourself than you were yesterday.  Degrees and certificates may get you a job, the below if all done well will set you are part and ensure your trajectory upwards.

  1. Speak well
  2. Write well
  3. Have technical expertise
  4. Build relationships and network
  5. Engage in continued learning
