The course, Soft Skills touches on the main interpersonal, social, and professional skills required to help you build and make better your relationships with people. This includes people in your personal situations (family, friends, social influence etc.) and at workplace.

The course also links Soft skills with personality development to show they both go together and how personality development helps determine one's strong skills and gaps in skills.
