1. Introduction to Professional skills
In nearly all working processes or procedures, an employee needs a mix of different skills. Essentially, we can sort these skills in two categories: One include specific proficiencies attained form education or from workplaces. These are often called hard or technical skills. The other one includes so-called soft skills, which include many kinds of personal or interpersonal skills such as problem-solving skills, communication skills, cooperation skills, adaptability and management skills. While hard or technical skills will always be important, personal skills, or soft skills, have become the most sought-after skills in employment today. Soft skills are reckoned to be key skills or competences at all workplaces and premises for learning to learn through lifetime. In this module, we focus on personal soft skills related to work activities. These are:
- Teamwork and Cooperation
- Management and Independence
