Soft skill supports 80% of success,” he asserted.

The explained that this positive event could become like a golden ink for the next successes. He advised that organizations or peer groups would create the next great generations. “There are not great people who are successful alone. There are great people because there are peer groups. A great person is born from his/her group,” he concluded.
