Lots of Chatter About Skills
![Page 5: The 3rd skill set presentation to metro boston](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/549e6e37b47959af608b45a6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Problem With Soft Skills
• No clear agreement on what they are
• Hard to assess skill level and train
• Consistent application unlikely
• Expert application no guarantee

What Do I Do With That?
