The key result titled "Enhance public speaking skills with confidence and clarity" focuses on improving the individual's oral communication abilities. The objective includes reducing the frequency and length of pauses during verbal presentations by 60%, which has been regarded as a significant marker of communication competency.

The OKR identifies various initiatives to meet this objective. These comprise of regular practice of presentations, enrollment in public speaking courses, and the use of a timer to monitor the duration of pauses. Each of these initiatives aims to enhance the individual’s competency in public speaking by reducing hesitations and promoting fluent presentations.

Another important aspect of this OKR is to maintain eye contact with the camera 90% of the time during broadcasts or recordings. This will be achieved through practices such as positioning the camera at eye level, maintaining eye contact during rehearsals, and reviewing recordings to ensure consistent eye contact.

Finally, this OKR aims to reduce the use of filler words like "um" by 50% during public speeches. This will involve seeking professional speech coaching, recording and reviewing speeches to identify filler words, and practicing speeches regularly to increase familiarity and confidence.
