Multitasking
Soft Skills and Communication
Multitasking is the practice of handling multiple tasks or responsibilities within the same period, either by switching attention rapidly between them or managing several ongoing processes at once. In a professional context, it is often listed as a soft skill reflecting an employee's ability to prioritize, stay organized, and remain productive under competing demands. While useful in fast-paced roles like administration, customer service, or project management, research shows that true simultaneous cognitive multitasking is limited, and effective multitaskers often rely on efficient task-switching and time management strategies.
