DO YOU KNOW THAT WE ALL HAVE INHERENT TALENTS & SKILLS (AND TYPICALLY HAVE A PASSION FOR) THAT WHEN PROPERLY TAPPED CAN BE USED IN A DIVERSE VARIETY OF OCCUPATIONS?
This makes certain types of tasks more preferable to others. For some, talents are specialized, such as gift for arts and music. For others, talents may be more generalized, such as leadership ability, negotiation skills or selling. But does it matter what your natural inclinations are? Can everyone learn skills and improve their over-all job performance?
Though it’s appealing to think that “all it takes is a lot of practice”, the many factors behind superior performance are far more complicated than we think. The daily habits we keep doing over and over, and by the way, we may be sincere in this area but could be sincerely wrong. Peculiarity in doing things when not guided properly or adequately trained the right way will all amount to nothing if not result to a negative impression.
SKILL SET as defined in the Cambridge English Dictionary refers to “the range of things that someone is good at, especially things that are useful in a particular job.” This apparently has two classifications: 1) HARD SKILLS, are know-how that can be actively learned, measured and proven through qualifications or be demonstrating them. And 2) SOFT SKILLS, are interpersonal skills. These are the attributes, character traits, inherent social cues and communication abilities needed for a smooth performance of one’s career.
According to research conducted by Harvard University, Carnegie Foundation, and Stanford Research Center – SOFT SKILLS are responsible for 85% of career successes, while only 15% is attributed to hard skills. Knowing this today, can we afford not to take this seriously?
