Personal skills are recognized as soft skills. These are not easy to teach but not impossible. They are also known as interpersonal or even ‘people’ skills. Technical skills, on the other hand, are the specialized knowledge and expertise required to perform specific tasks. Most of these tasks require specific tools and programs. 

Personal skills are abilities that help people positively interact with one another. Examples of personal skills include dependability, adaptability, motivation, problem-solving, and analytical skills. These are usually acquired naturally or through practice rather than study. People get and develop personal skills by interacting and forming relationships with others.

Technical skills are sets of abilities or knowledge used to perform practical tasks in the areas of science, the arts, technology, engineering, and math. Diverse technical skills are required in just about every field and industry, from IT and business administration to health care and education.

These two skills are vital in running a business. Usually, problems arise when there is a gap between personal and technical skills which is why it is important to bridge the gap. Technical skills are necessary for business for many reasons. The tasks the employees perform every day rely on different tools and processes. This is why it is essential to ensure that employees have the technical skills they need to perform their job successfully. However,  personal skills are also equally important.
