In today's business world, it is not enough to be an erudite on economics, design, planning or any other sectors in which you may have some educational background. It takes more than technical skills to achieve success in a project, program or any career. In recent years, the focus in management has shifted from technical aspects of the profession (the skills of managing the project budget, planning, scheduling, and resources, etc., have been viewed as the key to delivering successful projects) to people-oriented factors such as interpersonal skills. These skills are professional competences, soft skills, management abilities or whatever you name it. It is just as important to focus on the soft skills of management-skills such as relationship building and communication-that can make or break your results. Soft skills (also called "people skills") are typically hard to observe, quantify and measure. In this paper the focus is on Interpersonal soft skill, hard skill, leadership skill and how beneficial are these skills for an individual and how these soft skills are becoming the key factor to differentiate a normal employee, from an outstanding one apart from this workplace communication relationship will be discussed.
