Of course, the above statement holds truth; at least in my case. Being worked in a media-related organization as a correspondent for two years; I guess I can now have the guts to say so. Yes, for a person like me who has taken-up this profession of writing with the notion of, to not-to-speak and always write; it came as shock to attend press-conferences and seminars as a part of my profession, wherein I had to show my share of soft-skills. These were the skills which involved and actually consisted of those diplomatic gestures and behavioral traits that I suppose, I never had the courage (yes, actually) to acquire! These were also the times when I used to think of my dad’s preaching of becoming a bit more social (I so wished I was)!
Anyways, enough of my preaching now; the moral of the story (above!) is that whichever field of profession you belong to you ought to be well-spoken. And, well-spoken just doesn’t mean that you speak well; it means a lot more… It more has to do with one’s intellectual as well as emotional quotient, wherein you are judged how balanced he is when it comes to professional behavior.
Therefore, one apart from enrolling in course just for the sake a degree in hand; one should concentrate on gaining knowledge not only in regard to his profession but also to develop these interpersonal skills called ‘soft skills’ which enables a student to achieve success beyond imagination!
