Soft skills are essential for success and necessary in the workplace. They are also a hot topic of discussion. Andrea Baljak hosts a weekly podcast to focus on them. She and Alen Mayer cofounded the Soft Skills Growth company, which in addition to the podcast offers tools and resources focused on these necessary skills.
In the podcast description, Baljak says she struggled with self-confidence and self-esteem and developed her soft skills by reading, watching, listening, and learning. The podcast is meant to help others.
In the episode "Pillars of Motivation," for example, Baljak shares nine tips for motivating yourself, including knowing what you want and why. She says motivation is the force that drives us to set and achieve goals.
Episodes run on average from four to six minutes, and more than 35 episodes are available. Some of the topics the podcast has explored are speaking up for yourself, ways to ruin an apology, how to master self-discipline, and tips for getting organized.
