Evaluating
Soft Skills
The mere presence of technical abilities does not guarantee
success. Soft skills are essential for winning the race. As
Indian pharma advances on the growth radar, Sonal Shukla tries

‘We
invest in soft skills’
In today's competitive environment, it is essential for employees

training them. Sonal Shukla speaks to Mallika Datta, Associate
Manager, Human Resources, Quintiles Data Processing Centre
on this issue.

from a vending machine". Most individuals and organisations
do not readily embrace change.
