Soft skill Every human being is made of few qualities and abilities through he live his life and earns livelihood and recognition in the society. There are several degrees and diploma which a person can achieve by indulging into study and continuity of doing hard work. Even a businessman who is running his business needs some abilities to run it successfully. These abilities are called Skill. And Skill can be divided into two domains that is 1. Domain General Skill and 2. Domain Specific skill. General skill includes your time management, team work, articulation, leadership self motivation and others. While specific skill would be the technical knowledge something which is required for a specific kind of job or work? Since the world has become globalize and the opportunities are wide open for everyone whosoever wants to achieve anything to it’s extend. But acquiring such success you need some extraordinary quality which makes a person different from others and that is the soft skill. Soft skill is nothing but to an added feature or quality which provides you an edge through you can make a mark on others. Soft skill is a sociological term for a person’s emotional intelligence, which refers to the cluster of personality trade. Your articulation, friendliness, optimism, modesty, meticulation, social grace can set you apart from others. Soft skill always compliments hard skill. It polishes your technical knowledge to execute in a better manner. In this competitive world every employer wants to have an employ with some added quality in addition of their standard qualification through they can get more business for the company. Specially in those companies which are directly related with customers and dealing them frequently. These companies provides special induction training to their employees that how to enhance and how to use soft skills to earn more success for themselves and company. Working with a team spirit and meticulously can really bring prosperity for the company. Having such employees is a real asset for any company. Example: You all must be knowing about the famous painter Makbool Fida Hussain. Last year he sold one of his collections of painting in Rs. 100 crore .There are several painter and artist also working in same profession but what is the extra ordinary quality he is having to earn such a great amount for his paintings? The answer is his cultivation of thoughts, innovative ideas of experimenting different and untouched aspects of human life and nature. As we know about his fame and profoundness across the globe, and he is able to use all of his soft skills like, promoting his art on and across the world in an impressive and dignified manner. Having a good relationship with world art community and the most importantly his own wisdom and meticulation which make him favorite for the byres. There are several qualities which we can count as the soft skill and here I am going to throw some lights on these five skills and these are- 1. Communication Skill. 2. Interpersonal Skill. 3. Time Management. 4. Networking and socializing. 5. Personal grooming and etiquettes. 1. Can you please tell me which all things can be considered as the communication skill? Communication is the medium through we express our views and opinion to others and simultaneously we come to know about the other’s view and opinion. There are two types of communications- 1. Verbal communication and 2. Written communication. In verbal communication we converse with people face to face or a through telephonic conversation. While in written communication we express our views through letters or e-mail. For becoming a good communicator we must understand few things like having a good control on the language must be prioritize. A hold on certain language will always help you to communicate properly with others. There are thousand of languages exists in this world, but the one language which has become the International language and that is English. So if you are having a good knowledge of English than certainly it is fruitful for you. While communicating with others our articulation of thoughts can really help a listener to make him understand lucidly. Your modest attitude can bring out your real inner charm and notion. Always keep flexibility through you can mold yourself according to situation. There are people who always start blowing their own drum pad and don’t let other speak, we must avoid such habits because listening is also an art and it is often seen that a good listener can be a good speaker. While listening one can also increase his concentration level. A sincere communicator must avoid using slang and fancy language it can create a negative image in the mind of listeners. It is always beneficial to prepare our self before giving any lecture or presentation, while doing your homework you can correct your mistakes and during presentation you will be more confident and clear about your concept. In today’s working culture there is no place for ambiguity in your concept and plan of action. Even wherever you need to ask any assistance from your colleague or subordinates, don’t hesitate and get the cooperation of them. 2. Inter personal skill: Today we can find several managements and technical institution through one can get profound knowledge of a particular field, and after getting such qualifications one can find a suitable job. But this is not the end of your learning process, and even it doesn’t provide you a leeway to feel your success as taken for granted. now onwards the real challenge begins. You enter in an environment where you will have to face a different culture and individuals. In the beginning everyone comes ahead to cooperate and guide you but at the end of the day we have to complete our entire task on our own. We all look for the people who are courteous and friendly and easy to jell with others. Having a helpful colleague is really a blessing for anyone, and developing such merits in yourself can be pleasing for your surrounding. In every prospect of life we find our self in a society and culture and one can not survive him alienating from others. Whining about your surrounding will also create a negative image of yourself. Avoid backbiting don’t criticize others unnecessarily, but never allow others also to dominate you. It is seen that many people perform their job as a silent performer and keep a distance from others. But working in friendly environment is really pleasing for every body. so, try to create a lively aura crack some anic dotes and trust me in today’s tuff lifestyle and working pressure every one likes the person having such sense of humor. This is a fact that you will be assigned several tasks and you will be expected to complete it in a limited time with best output, so having a good relationship and understanding with colleagues and subordinates will truly make you feel comfortable to allocate the responsibility among them. Here your Interpersonal skill can be tested if you are having acrimonious relation with anyone among of them. Because ultimately you can not afford to delay or neglect particular assignment. So always maintain calm and polite attitude and work with a positive spirit. Don’t react your anger spontaneously. It will increase your tolerance level and will not allow building a bitter situation. If you are able to using your temper instead of losing your temper then you must rate yourself as a real professional. 2. Time Management: Time is money, Time is asset. It sounds very pleasing to ears, but managing your time according to your requirements needs a strict punctuality in your life. We all are using computers and very familiar with the name of Microsoft and it’s honor Mr. Bill Gates. Few years ago an article was published in a newspaper and according to that if a note of 100 $ will sleep out from the hands of Mr. Bill Gates then even he won’t be bothered to pick it up. Because the time which will be consumed to pick that note is more expensive than 100 $. In one second he earns more than this amount and it will be a loss for him to spend few seconds for 100 $. 3. It’s always helpful to plan your workday and prioritize your work according to their importance. Allocate certain duration for each and every task going to be completed by you. Always try to facilitate your work and save the time with the use of technology effectively. Delegate assignment to your subordinates and team members according to their responsibilities. Don’t hesitate to ask help or suggestion from colleagues and seniors. Every one likes to be recognized as a fast mover with their activeness and initiating approach and in process we start multitasking which can create an adverse situation and affect your efficiency and quality of work. Hone yourself to reach such master level with gaining experience and more knowledge. Otherwise multitasking can create a situation where you will falter and provide an opportunity for others to snigger on you. 4. Networking and socializing: The competitive level of the professional era has been increasing rapidly. Everyone wants to climb on top as soon as possible and whosoever have a strong channel and networking in market and society is a Perquisite for him and he can be heavily benefited and get more success than others.
