Soft Skills
By Ian Morrison -- There are hard skills and there are soft skills. Hard skills are specific, can be (generally) easily taught, and include things like being able to read a book or read a cardiac monitor. Hard skills are the minimum skills necessary to do a job. Most people with the same level of education and experience should have roughly the same level of hard skills.
Soft skills, such as bedside manner are often intangible and, therefore, not easily taught. They tend to be more of a function of personality characteristics such as motivation, sociability, and work ethic. Some soft skills include leadership, creativity, ambition, accountability, ability to teach, interpersonal abilities, and reliability.
