Soft skills are a bunch of skills which complement "hard skills". Technical knowledge of any subject is considered hard skill. Common sense knowledge of anything is soft skill. Soft skills are also called corporate skills. Soft skills can be more useful and practical (than?/to whom?). Effective communication skill can be the most sought after skill by employers. Though "soft skills" are highly useful yet they seem not taught in school (direct/indirect?).

Today we need more soft skills than our conventional bookish knowledge. Soft skills are the basic requirement of everybody. Here is a list of most common soft-skills:

Manners/Politeness/Friendliness

Politeness

Maintaining a calm and friendly composure is as important as to making a worthwhile impression on others

Greetings

Starting a conversation by a greeting, complement, social gesture and a simple comment about societal - relative topic like the weather and work your way up to other topics

Respect for others

Even though you are exposed to someone who you do not know well enough to give them respect it is necessary that you give them the respect they would expect irrespective to whether or not they deserve that. Sensitive and idealistic men are hard to impress if you don't restrain your political and religious views (or any other as a matter of fact) to your selves

Positive Attitude

Attitude is like an ice berg, the tip which is visible is the part that you show but actually the real attitude is within you.

Sense of humour

Humour can be a disaster if you are not exceptionally good at it.

Team(work)
