 As we have known that ‘个gè’ the most general measure word; used for people, round objects, abstract things, such as questions / ideas, etc.

‘只zhī’ is for animal and one of certain pair things; piece or item.

And then upgrade to the unit of count to hundred ‘百bǎi’,  then to  thousand ‘千qiān’,  to ten thousand ‘万wàn’, and a hundred million is ‘亿yì’.

Employers increasingly seek candidates with strong upskilling capabilities, particularly in the realm of impromptu speaking.  This refers to the ability to deliver well-structured, persuasive messages with little to no preparation.  This skillset can be a significant differentiator in interviews, meetings, and networking events.

Let's look into the upskilling process for impromptu speaking. Firstly, fostering a strong foundation in business acumen is crucial.  A comprehensive understanding of industry trends, financial literacy, and marketing principles allows you to speak with authority on relevant topics during impromptu exchanges.  Furthermore, honing critical thinking and problem-solving skills equips you to analyze situations quickly and formulate concise, impactful responses.

Secondly, active listening is essential.  Pay close attention to verbal and nonverbal cues from your audience during impromptu interactions. This enables you to tailor your message accordingly, fostering deeper connections and demonstrating genuine interest in their perspectives.

Thirdly, practice is key.  While formal presentations require meticulous planning, impromptu speaking thrives on consistent exercise.  Engage in discussions with colleagues, participate in mock interviews, or join public speaking clubs.  Record yourself delivering impromptu presentations on various business topics and analyze the recordings to identify areas for improvement.

Finally, cultivate a growth mindset.  Embrace challenges and view every unexpected speaking opportunity as a learning experience.  Focus on clear and concise communication, avoiding jargon and filler words.  Organize your thoughts using frameworks like the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to deliver impactful narratives.

By upskilling in impromptu speaking, you equip yourself with a valuable asset in the professional arena.
