Other are speaking, talking to others to convey information effectively, social perceptiveness, service orientation which means always looking for ways to help people, critical thinking by using logic and reasoning to identify the strengths and weaknesses of alternative solutions, conclusions or approaches to problems, learning strategies, coordination whereby I learnt how to “adjust” my actions in relation to others’ actions and lastly judgement and decision making.
