Individuals consider their educational, technical, licensed or professional skills the most important aspects of their application and consideration for a position in healthcare. However, most employers equally value an individual’s soft skills when making a decision to hire or promote. Soft skills are the things you do that make you a great employee outside of the technical skills that are needed for the job.
They are skills that an individual has that make him or her great employee – no matter where they work or what they do or their job title. For some people, these skills come naturally – for others they need to be developed, refined or strengthened. While these skills don’t necessarily find themselves listed on job descriptions of duties, employees with well-developed soft skills are difficult to find and are very valuable to healthcare teams. This course will focus on these key skills, often referred to as soft skills, which help healthcare workers be successful members of their professional teams and for increasing the organization’s performance and competitiveness.
