Forbes, by Jacquelyn Smith

​
Find Out What Employers Want - 
​
They are called "soft skills".  Employers are looking specifically for workers who possess "soft skills". Soft skills can include personal habits, people skills, cognitive, emotional, and leadership traits.  These "soft skills" are increasingly more important to employers than "hard skills" - job specific, technical skills applicable to the job.   Do you know all of them?  Do you possess them?

"Leaders become great, not because of their powers,
​but because of their ability to empower others."
