The mark of higher education isn’t the knowledge you accumulate in your head. It’s the skills you gain about how to learn.- Adam Grant

functional skills determine what you do, while, soft skills ensure that you do it well. Soft skills are focused on who you are and how well you perform a given task. These skills not only help accentuate a corporate professional’s hard skills, but also increase their productivity multi-fold.

Organizational success is not solely dependent on qualified and experienced professionals. Their ability to collaborate, communicate, connect with people, manage time, manage stress, resolve conflicts along with many other skills also contribute to the success of the organization.
