Ascent of the Accent is a post from: Campbell White

Soft Skills Def:  A sociological term relating to a person’s “EQ” (Emotional Intelligence Quotient), the cluster of personality traits, social graces, communication, language, personal habits, friendliness, and optimism that characterize relationships with other people.[1] Soft skills complement hard skills (part of a person’s IQ), which are the occupational requirements of a job and many other activities.   —- A person’s soft skill EQ is an important part of their individual contribution to the success of an organization. Particularly those organizations dealing with customers face-to-face are generally more successful if they train their staff to use these skills. Screening or training for personal habits or traits such as dependability and conscientiousness can yield significant return on investment for an organization.[2] For this reason, soft skills are increasingly sought out by employers in addition to standard qualifications.  —It has been suggested that in a number of professions soft skills may be more important over the long term than occupational skills. The legal profession is one example where the ability to deal with people effectively and politely, more than their mere occupational skills, can determine the professional success of a lawyer.

About CW is a post from: Campbell White

• Get to the root: As with any problem we encounter in our professional careers, if you just smooth things over, the overall problem could remain and resurface at a later, and perhaps more inopportune time.
• See it from their side: Every story has two sides. To solve the problem efficiently, you will have to put yourself in their place and see it from their side as well. “Because I said so” may work with children, but not professional adults.
• Finding a workable solution: It is your job as a manager to counsel your employees through these difficult issues. You have to take the time to really understand the issue. Many managers say they have an open door policy, but their subordinates know the moment they walk through that door there will be a cost. They must have confidence you will be judicious and confidential when called upon to do so.
• Going around the mountain: Sometimes we climb mountains we would be better off going around. The key is knowing when and how to do that.
• Reconciliation: No matter who is involved in the conflict, they will have to be able to work together going forward. You have to do more as a manager than say “OK, I guess that settles it then…” Now back to work! You as a responsible manager will have to take the extra steps needed to accomplish this goal.
