A LinkedIn survey of more than 660+ million professionals revealed the most in demand soft skills in 2020. Here’s how speech and debate helps students master them:
Creativity – Students are empowered to make artistic choices about how they bring words to life through performance. Unique arguments are encouraged and thinking outside the box differentiates students from their peers debating the same topics.
Persuasion – Students learn how to best convince an audience in the face of equally well-informed, persuasive competition.
Collaboration – Students work with teammates and coaches to craft stories, create arguments, build upon feedback, and perfect their performances.
Adaptability – Students learn to think on their feet and tailor a performance to a given audience.
Emotional Intelligence – Students learn to see both sides of an issue and to use appropriate strategies for questioning things they do not understand.
