This article explores the importance of developing both hard and soft skills among personnel involved in the management of educational institutions. In the modern educational landscape, effective management requires not only technical competencies—such as strategic planning, financial oversight, and administrative regulation—but also interpersonal abilities like communication, leadership, emotional intelligence, and teamwork. The paper analyzes the current trends and challenges in human resource development within educational settings, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that fosters both sets of skills. Additionally, it provides practical recommendations for integrating skill development programs into institutional management structures. Through a synthesis of recent academic studies and real-world case examples, the study highlights how improving the hard and soft skillsets of managers can enhance the overall efficiency, adaptability, and innovation capacity of educational institutions.
