From day-to-day greeting to a formal presentation, social skills play a major role in our interaction with the community in which we dwell in.
Social skills, in nutshell, refer to the way we interact with the other people around us, and the treatment that we receive in response. While, social skills vary from one culture to another, it’s safe to say that a combination of verbal and non-verbal functions shape the basis of such skills in a guild.
Communication, facial expressions, body language, external behavior , overall mood towards others , accent, level of closeness , the recognition of social status, presupposition, openness, self-confidence are but few of the notions that fall under the category of social skills.
