In 2013, Forbes published an article, "The 20 People Skills You Need to Succeed at Work." Likeability, flexibility, communication skills, leadership skills and negotiation skills all make the list.

Leadership Now
One of the critical lessons in life — and it extends beyond the workplace — is the importance of respect. This may seem old-fashioned or trite in the days of, "I got mine, go get yours," but if you treat people right, you will get the results you want. This is especially true in business.

Here is a fact about leadership that no one really wants to talk about — it's a lot bigger than just yourself. Sure, leadership can bring bigger paychecks and a whole lot more notoriety in most cases, but that's not even remotely close to defining what true leadership is really all about. True leadership is much more than authority and recognition from the outside world.

Listening is a bit like intelligence — most everyone thinks they're above average, even though that's impossible. And listening is a skill you want to be great at.
