Since childhood, we’ve all been consciously or unconsciously honing our social skills. Interpersonal skills can become so automatic that we don’t even realize we’re doing it.

Interpersonal skills can help you in a variety of ways, both professionally and socially, because they lead to improved understanding and relationships.

Interpersonal Skills Development –

Interpersonal skills are frequently regarded as the cornerstone for successful working and social relationships, as well as the development of many other abilities. Good leaders, for example, have strong interpersonal skills and use these to improve other aspects of their leadership abilities. 

It is generally more difficult to build other critical life skills without solid interpersonal abilities. As a result, investing time in improving interpersonal skills is worthwhile. Interpersonal skills (soft skills) are employed every day and in every aspect of our lives, unlike specialized and technical abilities (hard skills). 

It’s best to improve and enhance your interpersonal skills in stages, starting with the most fundamental but crucial: 

  1. Determine where you can improve. 

The first step toward improvement is to gain a better understanding of yourself and your flaws. 

You may already have a decent sense of which areas want improvement. However, because it is easy to create ‘blind spots’ about yourself, it is worthwhile to obtain input from others. 

  1. Work on your fundamental communication abilities. 

The words that come out of your lips are only a small part of communication.

Some even believe there is a purpose why you have two ears and one mouth, and that there is a connection between the two. 

as a result, you should listen twice as much as you speak!

You may believe that choosing your words is the most crucial aspect of communicating a message, but nonverbal communication is far more significant than many of us realize. According to some experts, nonverbal signs such as body language, tone of voice, and speaking pace express roughly three-quarters of the message.’ 

These nonverbal signals support or contradict the message of our words, and they are far more difficult to falsify than words. As a result, they are a far more dependable signal, and learning to understand body language is an important element of communication. 

  1. Enhance your sophisticated communication abilities 

Once you’re comfortable with your fundamental listening skills and verbal and nonverbal communication, you can go on to more advanced communication topics including improving your speaking effectiveness and understanding why you might be having communication issues. 

Communication is rarely flawless, and it can go wrong for a variety of reasons. You can be more aware of — and lessen the risk of — inefficient interpersonal communication and misconceptions by learning more about the many barriers to good communication. Communication issues can emerge for a variety of reasons, including: 

  • Physical hurdles, such as being unable to see or hear the speaker clearly or having language issues; 
  • Emotional barriers, such as a desire not to hear or engage with what is being said; and • Expectations and prejudices that influence what people see and hear.

There are times when communication is more challenging, such as when you have to have a difficult chat with someone, say about their work standard. These are either planned or impromptu conversations. 

  1. Focus on yourself 

Although interpersonal skills are concerned with how you interact with others, they begin with you. If you focus on your own abilities, you will notice a significant improvement in many areas. 

People are more likely to be drawn to you if you have a pleasant attitude, for example. A cheerful mindset also leads to increased self-assurance. 

If you’re worried about anything, you’re also less likely to be able to communicate properly. As a result, learning to recognize, manage, and reduce stress in yourself and others is critical. Effective communication also requires the ability to be assertive without becoming quiet or confrontational.

Developing emotional intelligence is maybe the most essential overarching skill. The ability to comprehend your own and others’ emotions, as well as its impact on behavior and attitudes, is known as emotional intelligence. As a result, it’s probably best thought of as both personal and interpersonal in nature, but there’s little doubt that increasing your emotional intelligence can benefit you in all aspects of interpersonal skills. Author of several books on emotional intelligence, Daniel Goleman, highlighted five major elements, three of which are personal and two interpersonal. 

  • Self-awareness, self-regulation, and motivation are examples of personal skills, or “how we control ourselves.” In other words, understanding and regulating our own emotions, as well as understanding what motivates us, is the first step toward understanding and managing the emotions of others. 
  1. Consider what you’ve learned and how you may improve. 

The last, but certainly not least, aspect of growing and refining your skills is to cultivate the practice of self-reflection. Taking the time to reflect on earlier talks and other interpersonal interactions will help you learn from your mistakes and triumphs while also allowing you to grow. for example. You could find it beneficial to keep a diary or learning notebook and write in it once a week.
