    If you look at every person that works their way up in the company, there’s one thing they always have: strong interpersonal skills (or are at least improving those skills constantly). There’s a saying at Merck: “When you think of the patients first, the profits follow, and when done so they have never failed to follow”. It also applies to those working with/for you. When you work with people and care about their opinions, treat them appropriately, etc. then the hard work and dedication you want from them will follow. If you know how to interact with people in a positive manner, then you will do well in industry.
