One type skills which can be hard to define or measure are soft skils like public speaking, the ability to lead a group, how you manage power dynamics,effective communication (writing, speaking and listening), boldness, strategic thinking and many more.

How has been your approach with these? Do you see it as a skill to develop or it comes naturally as a second priority behind hard skills? For me I see these ones even as more important than hard skills, as many people can be experts on a field but only a few have the right "system" of skills that can create a differentiator in the market. Like my father used to say: "Better to be smart on the field rather than smart in the classroom"
