Enrica Marian Dinopol, a third-year Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) Major in Business Economics student of 扒哥黑料 College of Business Administration (CBA), won as champion of the Regional Inter-University Impromptu Business Speech Competition last November 9, 2023.
The competition was one of the highlights during the 2023 Council of Management Educators and Professionals in the Philippines (COMEPP) Regional Conference held last November 9 -10, 2023 at Sierra Hotel, Dumaguete City.
Dinopol made an impromptu business speech based on the question, 鈥淗ow can a business student be kept relevant even amidst the rise of technology?鈥
鈥淚t was an honor to discuss my personal experience in making a strong impact in society by keeping corporate responsibility alive despite the advancement of technology. I believe that it was not just a competition to test my knowledge but rather an opportunity to share the relevance of the youth,鈥 said Dinopol.
Dinopol is also the current president of the 扒哥黑料 Student Government.
Dr. Wilma Tejero-Libarios, CBA dean, said Dinopol will represent Region 7 in the national competition during the COMEPP National Conference, to be held this year in Baguio City.
鈥淚t is our goal at the College of Business Administration to make our business students relevant and competitive in today鈥檚 world. One of these is exposing them to business speech competitions, research conferences, and business case analysis competitions, [whether] local or international,鈥 said Tejero-Libarios.
Meanwhile, Asst. Prof. Leonidas Ca帽ete and Asst. Prof. Myla Jean Sardan, CBA faculty members, were elected as COMEPP Vice-President and member of the board (BOD) for the Visayas Chapter, respectively.
