What about soft skills?

Antonio Rodríguez [Deiser]

This is a pretty different post from what I'm finding in the Community. Still, I find it necessary. 

 

Hi, everybody! 

 

My name is Antonio. I joined Deiser (Atlassian Platinum Partner) as a Content Marketing Specialist last April. Before, I worked at a tech recruiting company. There, I learnt a lot about soft skills and these kind of things we don't notice in an everyday basis, but are essential. 

Sorry for the personal spam, but I needed to make a quick introduction. 

What I wanted to talk about today is soft skills in Atlassian environment. 

Let me introduce you to my team:

These people are nice, kind and hardworking. But also they are the best in their jobs. 

We are consultants, we are communicators, but, what we are most is people. 

Every time we have to work, hand by hand, with a client, we try to understand the best possible their problem and their concerns. We don't mind how big the client or the project is. Each client needs to be handed as if it was the top notch company. 

But also, I have noticed something really curious. Every company I have met in the ecosystem has the same employee pattern. People at Atlassian, people at every partner, works their a** off to reach the best results possible. 

And I think this soft skills factor makes us the best ecosystem to work and to grow. 

This is all I wanted to share with you, guys. 

Never forget the importance of great soft skills. 

Never forget the importance of a great communication between colleagues and clients. 

Always bet on people and their development. 

Best!
