Soft Skill is our Surviving Power
Have you ever believed that as long as you mastered those technical skills, you’d automatically “survive” at work? Think again. Data shows a different story:
- According to (Forbes, 2025), 92% of hiring professionals say soft skills matter as much or more than technical skills
- (Leadership IQ) says in their report that 89% of new hire failures happen due to attitude or soft-skill gaps, not lack of technical knowledge
- According to report by Allwork.Space / TestGorilla, 2025, 60% of employers say that  soft skills have become more important in the last five years
What does this mean? Soft skills aren’t just “nice to have”, they’re survival skills. They help you navigate relationships, communicate effectively, adapt to change, and thrive when challenges arise.
In our previous post Hard Skill Vs Soft Skills 2025 we analyzed deeply the difference of soft skills and hard skills.
Your skills and ability are powerful, but how you collaborate, respond to feedback, and manage your energy and mindset often determines long-term success.
Hard skills get you the interview. Soft skills keep you in the game.
