Published: Dec. 2, 2020, 4:34 p.m.

Did you ever wish you were taught something in college that would have helped you in your career? You're not alone. In this podcast, Carmel and David review a recent report by the Association of Public and Land Grant Universities that highlighted 11 key skills as critical growth areas for students preparing to enter the workforce. And guess what, they're all "soft skills!"

\n

We cover the list of skills and highlight some tips to practice these skills on your own. We also share our experiences learning and applying these skills. As a manager, Carmel also shares what skills she sees that can be a great benefit to a team.

Working on these skills is a good start in helping you become successful in your career and can, more importantly, help keep your mental balance as you juggle your work and relationships.
