What you'll learn

The Speaking Mandate is a 30-day immersive, activity-based spoken English initiative designed to cultivate articulate, confident, and globally competent communicators by equipping participants with the linguistic fluency, strategic expression, and public presence required to navigate academic, professional, and diplomatic contexts with clarity, confidence, and conviction. Participants will gain the confidence to speak fluently and assertively in real-life academic, professional, and social situations. They will master the art of structured, purposeful, and audience-aware communication through daily speaking challenges. By the end, they will exhibit strong verbal presence, strategic thinking, and adaptability in every conversation they lead or join.
