It is an ability to connect to others in a deep and direct way, to sense and stimulate reactions and desired interactions. Employees who are socially employed will be able to quickly assess the emotions of those around them and adapt their words, tones and gestures too.

This is considered to be one of the essential skills for workers who need to collaborate and build relationships of trust but it is even more important when they collaborate with larger groups of people in different settings.
