Speaking Skill
You will need to look convincing in your next presentation or when giving a speech that could potentially change the world (for example) on climate change. Debate competition will help you a lot.
Argument articulation
Arguments further the development of the world. A great skill to have for your life is to learn and grow yourself. To be closer to the truth.
