    Interpersonal skills are crucial when it comes to working in the industry. We all work as teams and sometimes your peers will not agree with on another. That is why interpersonal skill are really important. In my opinion verbal communication and listening is the most important. As a team, coworkers need to have a strong ability to listen and communicate with one another. For example, in the industry we are constantly interacting with other people from different other departments for information or assistance. If we can’t communicate or work together the job will not get done. In my opinion I don’t believe interpersonal skills are not just people skills but more life skills that help us communicate and relate to one another. At my previous job we use to have team building seminars and that constantly taught us about interpersonal skills. We were taught why interpersonal skills were so important not just for our team but for the overall company and the work environment.
