Soft Skills vs Hard Skills
Nowadays we are discussing too much about skills. So I thought of putting more light on the
same. We as educationists broadly talks about two types’ of skills i.e. soft skills and hard skills.
During conversations with customers and co-workers, getting and receiving messages from one
another is essential to resolving concerns and in general getting things done. Understanding
what soft skills are and how to use them is a key.
What Are Skills?
Non-verbal question, in a conversation with anyone, can say more than the actual words.
Managing the question to create a better situation requires the use of soft skills. In a work
environment, there are two types of skills: hard and soft.
Hard skills are the technical skills you use each day to perform your job. Some examples
would be your computer skills or procedural knowledge you apply in your job. These skills are
those qualities of a person that can be measured. They are specific teachable abilities that can
be defined and quantified. Some examples of hard skills include typing, writing, math, software
using the ability, etc. All these things are learned through education and training at school,
college institutes or even on the job. Hard skills are important in knowledge-based fields like
medicine, engineering, web development, and technology.
Soft skills are the subtle behaviors and communication styles that help make a work
environment or interaction with another person easier to manage. Soft skills are personal
attributes and character traits that characterize a person’s relationships with other people.
These enable a person to interact effectively and harmoniously with other people. Soft skills
have more to do with who we are than with what we know. Soft skill examples include
communication skills, such as voice inflection and gestures. They also include attributes such as
adaptability and flexibility. Hard skills can be learned and perfected over time but, soft skills are
very difficult to obtain and alter because they are what one’s personality is about. Some
examples of soft skills include empathy, understanding, active listening, patience, good
communication, problem-solving, etc.
Other soft skills include:
 Problem Solving
 Creative Thinking
 Conflict Resolution
 Time Management
 Self-Motivation

Soft skills vs Hard skills

  • 1. Soft Skills vs Hard Skills Nowadays we are discussing too much about skills. So I thought of putting more light on the same. We as educationists broadly talks about two types’ of skills i.e. soft skills and hard skills. During conversations with customers and co-workers, getting and receiving messages from one another is essential to resolving concerns and in general getting things done. Understanding what soft skills are and how to use them is a key. What Are Skills? Non-verbal question, in a conversation with anyone, can say more than the actual words. Managing the question to create a better situation requires the use of soft skills. In a work environment, there are two types of skills: hard and soft. Hard skills are the technical skills you use each day to perform your job. Some examples would be your computer skills or procedural knowledge you apply in your job. These skills are those qualities of a person that can be measured. They are specific teachable abilities that can be defined and quantified. Some examples of hard skills include typing, writing, math, software using the ability, etc. All these things are learned through education and training at school, college institutes or even on the job. Hard skills are important in knowledge-based fields like medicine, engineering, web development, and technology. Soft skills are the subtle behaviors and communication styles that help make a work environment or interaction with another person easier to manage. Soft skills are personal attributes and character traits that characterize a person’s relationships with other people. These enable a person to interact effectively and harmoniously with other people. Soft skills have more to do with who we are than with what we know. Soft skill examples include communication skills, such as voice inflection and gestures. They also include attributes such as adaptability and flexibility. Hard skills can be learned and perfected over time but, soft skills are very difficult to obtain and alter because they are what one’s personality is about. Some examples of soft skills include empathy, understanding, active listening, patience, good communication, problem-solving, etc. Other soft skills include:  Problem Solving  Creative Thinking  Conflict Resolution  Time Management  Self-Motivation
