Abstract:

The current paper focuses on social competencies as a necessity for being successful in professional life on the basis of a triangle analysis. It is demonstrated how intra- and interpersonal competencies could be already developed during the academic career through different learning settings based upon scientific foundations, each emphasising an individual, team and global level respectively. It has been shown that these levels are intricately interwoven. Since this complex developmental process depends on several influencing factors, for success, an integrated learning setting is required to support future professionals to applicate effective interpersonal skills in diverse teams in a globalised world.
