Soft Skills in a Work Environment

In Mrs. Tiffany Ross’ Business Communication Class, students are learning the importance of soft skills in the workplace. Sandy Roman acts out the term employability discouragement while her classmates attempt to figure out what term she chose. While in the following photo, students learned that success often comes after failure. They learned about many famous people that received rejections before succeeding. Students participated in an activity where they threw a ball at the wall, the ball bounced back quickly depending on how hard it was thrown. Then students threw eggs at the wall. The eggs splattered and fell. Students were asked if they want to be a "ball" person or an "egg" person. We should all strive to be a "ball" and bounce back and not let our failures or rejections get us down.
