There is an expression in advertising and marketing:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf you cannot communicate it, it doesn\u2019t exist.<\/span><\/p>

If you cannot defend it, it won\u2019t last.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>

Communication skills, what are classically called \u201celoquence,\u201d can come together as creativity, strategy and teamwork, in one of the most in-demand skills by corporations and organizations.<\/span><\/p>

Various successive rounds replicate the purpose of rhetorically dismantling the arguments of the opponent. And after various turns of heated debate, the audience votes to choose the winning team, resulting in the victory of the \u201cpro-classes\u201d team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

All this involves mutual respect and uses the value of the word as the only weapon, because as the T-shirts of the participants said: \u201cany change begins with an act of eloquence\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
