Talk. Stop Calling Them Soft Skills: Because There is Nothing Soft About Getting Fired

By: Trevor Muir

Most employers say the top reason people are fired or never hired in the first place is that they lack soft skills: critical thinking, communication, collaboration, adaptability, and confidence. Most people lack these skills not because they are incapable of learning them, but because they never had a reason to. So much of the education system is focused on technical knowledge and "hard skills," and very little on these essential skills. Trevor talks about finding purpose in your education and work and using that purpose to develop the skills needed to succeed. When we have a defined purpose, a goal that would cause us to self-destruct if we did not achieve it, we will obtain whatever skills necessary to overcome any obstacles to fulfill that purpose. With purpose, we can then move from fired to thriving.
