The fitness of a candidate not only lies on the knowledge or skills acquired by a person in a subject, but also the ability to be a good team player. In addition to the real time experience, a candidate needs to have interpersonal skills. Here, we talk in detail about this with some shows on how to approach an interview, the different gestures, tips to have a positive interaction, etc.

Every individual has a strong potentiality, and ofcourse most of us have it latent and need to be tapped out. Let us walk through some of the important aspects for developing Interpersonal skills.

(i) Ability to work harmoniously with others

(ii) Accepting responsiblity

(iii) Being a Team Player

Despite being an active member of a team, if a person possesses the ability to be assertive certainly sounds great. Being 'Assertive' is not calling a spade a spade, but stating our views clearly and positively. Being assertive would help value the feelings of others and putting things on the right way. Assertiveness is the key to win people. Remember, too much of anything is also dangerous as extremes do not pay.

Responsibility means accepting the situation and striving to achieve the goal. It is the gut feeling to accept the outcome even if it gives an adverse result. Responsibility comes out of maturity.

Experiences are the results of responsibility. Adding skils while getting involved to the task becomes leads to commitment. Coordination with the team in meeting deadlines keeps a person 'time sensitive'. These qualities add flavor to the resume and keeps a person employable even at worst market conditions.

Time sensitive projects lead to conflict between team mates due to work load, between the manager and the subordinate, etc. To resolve conflict there are a few ways which adds up to the 'Interpersonal Skills'. Co-operating to the situation, emotional balance, priority to accomplish the task, ofcourse patience are some of the attitude one should have to improve this skill. The level of IQ helps finding a solution, whereas the level of EQ produces exceptional creativity in work. 

 

Developing the Interpersonal skill would help an individual to be a good listener. Listening leads to understand of the problem, planning, organizing skills, mentoring, and leadership qualities.
