No being a programmer is about that, it's about solving problems and building solutions. In this post I'll be be top five soft skills every programmer needs to have
↗️ COMMUNICATION
unarguably, a great deal of programmers lack communication skills they are not able to communicate problems with their team members there by making a problem very hard to solve.a lot of programmers have problem with communication because most of them spend the whole day writing codes and debugging and doing a lot of stuffs without getting out and meeting with people. Communication is a very essential skill every programmer should have this will enable him or her to pass across messages communicates solutions and problem with his community.
↗️ TEAMWORK AND COLLABORATION
Many projects require a dozen of engineers to build, it's takes more than just interacting with your computer. You've to be able to work together with people. A programmer cultivate the habit of working hand-in-hand with others to build real life solutions.
