Soft skills are the personal character traits or qualities each of us has. In other words, soft skills refer to a person's ability to relate to others, to get him/her and others organised, to communicate in written, spoken or other forms. Soft skills include psycho-social abilities and interpersonal skills that help people take decisions, solve problems, think critically, communicate effectively, build healthy relationships, demonstrate qualities of leadership and team building, manage time effectively, and cope with the stress and strain of life in a healthy and productive manner. This book has been divided into two parts: Intrapersonal skills and Interpersonal skills. Each part has 14 chapters. The uniqueness of this book is that besides the knowledge imparted within a chapter, the reader is encouraged to experience of an individual who has faced such a situation through “Impressions” and “Quiz It” to check the understanding of the chapter.
