Tenacity is the personal quality of persisting firmly and determinedly toward a goal despite obstacles, setbacks, or difficulty, often described as grit or perseverance. It's frequently cited as a soft skill valued by employers because tenacious employees are more likely to push through challenging projects, learn from failure, and achieve long-term objectives. The trait is often associated with entrepreneurship, sales, athletics, and other high-pressure or long-timeline pursuits.
