3. Enhancement Members are encouraged to give feedback based on the speech project guidelines and evaluation sheet. One learns to listen and analyse speeches. This enables us to, on one hand and on the other hand, this helps the speaker understand how the speech came across to the audience. The evaluation process also enables the evaluator to sharpen listening skills.
4. Mentoring is encouraged, and developed in a practical, effective manner. Senior members enable and empower those who are learning the ropes to build their confidence. Mentees learn to develop essential speaking skills and meaningful relationships that are invaluable in the corporate world as well as the social sphere in which we live. Mentors are not thrust on members, but rather, members are free to discover the learning on their own, or if they feel comfortable they will ask for specific inputs from the seniors that they consider worthy of being role models.
