what are soft skills?
A cloud solution for soft skills assessment
Soft skills are the set of competences that are not directly linked to a specific task. They are necessary in any role and job position as they refer to the relationship of an employee with any other member of the organization and the context in which he/she is located.
It is important to map the soft skills of candidates and employees in order to understand how well they are aligned, or potentially aligned, with a job role and with the structural and organizational context in which they find themselves, or are intended to find themselves.
It is possible to work on soft skills to build ad hoc development and growth paths. SoftskillLab is a valuable tool for monitoring the personal growth of employees and for planning targeted and effective training events.
