Championship Habits: Soft Skills in Hard Times for Leaders and Managers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781440143601)

Most employees are educated and trained with the technical or hard skills necessary to perform their professions, but important components-soft skills-are often lacking. These skills represent a cluster of personal qualities, habits, attitudes, and social graces that make a person a good employee and a compatible coworker.

Developed for organizations that deal with customers face-to-face, Championship Habits outlines twenty core soft skills that author and successful entrepreneur Adolph Brown believes are the cornerstones of a successful business. Based on years of personal experience and research, he identified these core soft skills, or championship habits, which employees should possess. Some of them include:

● Strong work ethic
● Sociability
● Self-esteem
● Confidence
● Positive attitude
● Self-management
● Listening skills
● Social skills

By translating cutting-edge theory into concise, hip language with lasting and emotional impact and including a host of illustrative examples, Championship Habits describes the importance of these twenty core personal qualities and interpersonal traits in a business environment. He shows how incorporating these championship habits at every turn will ensure that the workplace and the work itself are rewarding, profitable, and gratifying.
