> Good soft skills will not compensate lack of smartness

Ish. So for instance you can't be a complete fool, but if you hire people that are smarter than you are, and get them to work together as a team then soft skills can compensate for lack of smartness.

Obviously, to do this you need to have a realistic view of your own limitations. Dunning-Kruger sufferers need not apply.
