Some would go get a MBA or another higher degree, do additional certification courses, join professional institutes and similar other activities but rarely does one think of focusing on the career, and life, skills that help create an insurmountable differentiator called soft-skills.
An internet search on the word, soft-skills, will throw a definition that goes like this- a combination of interpersonal people skills, social skills, communication skills, character traits, attitudes, career attributes, social intelligence and emotional intelligence quotients among others that enable people to effectively navigate their environment, work well with others, perform well, and achieve their goals with complementing hard skills.
