Dealing with returning to the workplace creates the environment where this comes up again. In this week’s vlog post I explore what it means to focus on what you control as folk return to work.

Being a Professional, a soft skill?

John Whitehead

August 10, 2020

This week I explore what it means to be a “professional” based on the work of Nido Qubein and his five attributes of professionals which are: A specialized knowledge and skills, a unique relationship with their clients, render a service that people are willing to pay for, are held accountable for that service and finally, have a professional attitude. Is professionalism a soft skill? There are some who say it is. I’m not so sure. For me professionalism is how you demonstrate and use the soft skills of communication: listening, showing empathy, networking, self-confidence, and giving and receiving feedback. This is one of the topics in my new eBook “What Are these Things called Soft Skills?”
