Preparation is a Soft Skill but it may require intuition
Brent Jones
Soft skills require preparation, such as time management, interpersonal communications, team building, listening, and negotiation.
You must discern what is needed as you prepare, or you will find yourself “all dressed up with nowhere to go.” (Maybe even wearing the wrong coat for the terrain)
Intuitiveness, the ability to know or understand something because of feelings rather than facts or proof, is a soft skill, and it will happen when you research why you are preparing.
