Essential skills or soft skills are character traits and interpersonal skills that support the pursuit of personal and organisational goals. The better equipped staff members are, the greater the benefits to team cohesion, resilience, self-confidence, responsibility, teamwork, and communication.
'Research from Harvard University, the Carnegie Foundation, and Stanford Research Centre found that 85% of career success comes from having well-developed soft skills and people skills'.
