Scientists then decided to substitute one of the monkeys. The 1st thing this new monkey did was to go up the ladder.

Immediately the other monkeys beat him up.

After several beatings, the new member learned not to climb the ladder even though

never knew why.

A 2nd monkey was substituted and the same occurred. The 1st monkey participated on the beating for the 2nd monkey. A 3rd monkey was

changed and the same was repeated (beating). The 4th was substituted and the beating was repeated and finally the 5th monkey was replaced.

What was left was a group of 5 monkeys that even though never received a cold shower, continued to beat up any

monkey who attempted to climb the ladder.

If it was possible to ask the monkeys why they would beat up all those who attempted to go up the ladder…..

I bet you the answer would be….“I don’t know – that’s how things are done around here”

Soft Skills Vs Hard Skills

Soft Skills Vs Hard Skills

Hard skills are tangible skills that are easy to teach, identify, and measure..

Soft skills are intangible interpersonal skills that are associated with an individual’s ability to effectively interact with others.

The relation between both soft and hard skills is that of relation between wife and husband. It is tough task to conclude that husband is superior to wife.

Hard and Soft Skills-A Practical Example

Being able to back a truck without hitting anything or anybody is a "hard skill“.Reporting to work on time, being able to take direction, and having enough initiative to be productive are "soft skills." Employers seek these skills in everyone they hire.
