From WSJ:
It Pays to Be Human - The job market’s most sought-after skills can be tough to spot on a résumé. Companies across the U.S. say it is becoming increasingly difficult to find applicants who can communicate clearly, take initiative, problem-solve and get along with co-workers. Those traits, called soft skills, can make the difference between a standout employee and one who just gets by.
"Soft skills" are needed in medicine too. It is always great to be human. After all, we can't be anything else.
The top 10 in-demand soft skills are listed by LinkedIn here: https://business.linkedin.com/talent-solutions/blog/trends-and-research/2016/most-indemand-soft-skills
Looking at the top 10 least in-demand skills is an eye opening experience. Apparently, employers are not interested anymore in: "emotional intelligence", and some teams skills such as leadership and team building.
