“Crisis Leadership: managing unforeseen challenges effectively”

13.03.2026

It’s the fall of 1941, the skies are gray, the air is cold, and the enemy is getting closer every minute. Bombs shake the ground and no one knows if Moscow will stand. The frontline is only a few kilometers away from the city. But something even more dangerous has already entered it…

Panic.

Panic can destroy everything faster than any enemy.

Rumors spread faster than armies, people begin to doubt themselves, they stop trusting the government — and when that happens everything begins to crumble. Workers leave factories, transport collapses, supply chains break. And if that continues — the country will fall.

But we all know what happened next.

Moscow did not fall. The war was not lost. And right now you’re sitting here, listening to a ridiculously handsome young man giving this speech.

So… what changed? What stopped the collapse?

Crisis leadership — that’s what happened.

German forces were only 30 kilometers from the city, and yet the government did something completely unexpected — a military parade was held on Red Square. But the most incredible part came after. The soldiers didn’t go home. They marched straight from the parade to the front line. That single act sent a powerful message: the country was still standing, because in a crisis, the real battle is often psychological.

Another example of crisis leadership was a decision that never appeared in any protocol. According to all plans Stalin was supposed to evacuate from Moscow. But he didn’t. He stayed.

And that single decision changed the mood of the entire country. Now they’re not fleeing anymore, they’re resisting.

See, Crisis leadership is about making clear decisions under pressure. The actions taken by the government were not random — they were calculated and precise. And that is exactly why they worked.

But Crisis leadership is not only about governments or generals. Every person faces their own crises — exams, difficult choices, personal struggles. And in those moments, each of us must become our own leader. So, do you panic? Or do you think clearly? The decision is yours.

«It always seems impossible until it’s done»

13.03.2026

Hello, my name is Vasilisa. Today, I am going to talk about Nelson Mandela’s famous quote: 'It always seems impossible until it’s done.' These iconic words are not just a slogan; they are a blueprint for human progress.

Let’s Think back to the early 20th century. People then could never have imagined that we would carry the world’s entire knowledge in our pockets or send spacecrafts to Mars. What they labeled as 'pure magic' or 'madness,' we now consider everyday reality.

Mandela’s quote also reminds us that our greatest fears are often just illusions. Last year, I faced this challenge during my final music school exams. Although I loved performing, my theoretical knowledge was so weak that I genuinely believed passing was impossible because I didn’t understand the rules behind the music.

Have you ever wondered why we fear the mountain's peak more than the actual climb? Our minds build walls where there should be doors. I chose to study one chapter at a time. Eventually, the “impossible” exam was done, and I realized the barrier was only in my mind.

Of course, I am not talking about things that are objectively impossible, like teleporting to another galaxy in a second or touching the stars with your bare hands. I am talking about the boundaries of human achievement that we expand through science and effort.

As Walt Disney said: 'It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.' Disney transformed a simple sketch of a mouse into a global empire. He knew the greatest satisfaction comes from shattering your own perceived limits.

In conclusion: study, explore, and invent. Don’t let the word 'impossible' stop you."

 «The future depends on what you do today.» — Mahatma Ghandi

13.03.2026

Good afternoon everyone,

Have you ever imagined your future? A successful career, financial stability, a happy family, respect from others. We all have dreams about who we want to become.

But here is the real question: What are we doing today to make that future real?

Mahatma Gandhi once said, “The future depends on what you do today.”

It sounds simple. But if it’s so simple, why do we keep saying, “I’ll start tomorrow”?

Why do we wait for the perfect moment?

And what if that moment never comes?

I used to tell myself the same thing. “I’ll start later. I have time.”

But one day I realized something uncomfortable: I was wasting my time on nothing. Hours were passing, and I was not becoming better — just more distracted.

I had to ask myself a hard question:

Do I really want a better future, or do I just like dreaming about it?

That question changed me.

I decided to take control. I made a schedule. I started reading every day. I began planning my time instead of losing it. The steps were small, almost invisible. But day by day, I started to feel better. More focused. More confident. More responsible for my own life.

The truth is, success does not begin with something huge. It begins with one small decision. One hour of practice. One page read. One promise kept.

Yes, the future will bring challenges. We will make mistakes. But even mistakes can teach us — if we choose to learn instead of quit.

The future is not built in one dramatic moment. It is built quietly, daily, through discipline and choice.

So after this competition, when you go home, don’t just think about your big dreams.

Ask yourself:

What small step can I take today?

Because the person you become tomorrow depends on what you choose to do today.

Thank you

“The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.”- Leo Tolstoy

The Harmony of Time and Patience

Distinguished members of the jury, esteemed guests, good afternoon. My name is Emil Kerashvili, and I am a 9th-grade student. I would like to greet you in the tradition of my ancestors. In Georgia, we say «Gamarjoba!» Many people think it simply means «Hello,» but it actually translates to «Victory to you.» For me, as someone who has lived and breathed chess since the age of seven, your expert opinion is incredibly important. In my culture, the word of a wise judge is like the final move of a Grandmaster — it carries great weight and inspires growth.

As Leo Tolstoy famously put it, “The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.” I see these warriors not only on the chessboard but also in the music I play. In addition to chess, I have a deep passion for music; I play the guitar and have been blessed with a good musical ear and voice. In fact, I have learned that a difficult guitar solo and a complex chess opening both require the same thing: thousands of hours of practice. My journey began at the «Youth of Moscow» Olympic Reserve School. Firstly, as a result of this investment of time, I have won multiple stages of the Russian Youth Cup. Time is not my enemy; it is the rhythm that guides my progress.

Secondly, there is the warrior of patience. In chess, many players lose because they try to attack too quickly. However, my musical training has taught me that you cannot rush a melody; you must wait for the right note. This same patience helped me last year when I won the Moscow Schoolchildren's Championship. Furthermore, being raised in a Georgian home has given me what we call a «mountain character.» In other words, I was taught to be well-mannered, to respect my opponents, and to stay calm under pressure. Consequently, when I am at the chessboard, I combine my passionate spirit with the quiet patience of a strategist.

Moreover, these «two warriors» are my guides toward my ultimate goal: becoming an International Grandmaster. Whether I am practicing my vocals, strumming my guitar, or studying a classic game, I apply the same discipline. Therefore, I believe that being a true «warrior» means possessing the harmony of a musician and the nerves of a chess player. You cannot win a game — or master an instrument — in a single move.

As a final point, I am convinced that success is not about luck. It is about how you use your time, how much patience you hold in your heart, and how you respect the world around you. I have already achieved many victories, but my most important tournaments are still ahead of me. Above all, I am a student of life who moves with the rhythm of time.

I would like to thank you for your attention today. Remember: the clock is always ticking, but if you stay calm and focused, you will always be one move ahead.

Thank you! Gamarjoba and victory to us all!

Very fast. Too fast life. The world, that changes every second in every corner of this Universe. It doesn’t leave you any chance to have rest. You should run, run, run… Up to the end. But is it our life? Real beautiful life with all its wonders and mysteries. Or just a competition between blind people, who notice nothing. You should decide, what to choose.

Stop.

Respire.

Look around yourself.

What do you see? The fog goes away, all the masks are ripped off. You can see your real life. Is it a bright world with the shining sun and friends around you or is it a dry desert with a disgusting smell of death? Give the honest answer to yourself.

We all are humans, who have a lot of opportunities to do everything we want. Modern world is a territory of freedom, that gives us many rights. Yes, some countries are poor and have a lot of economical and political problems, but despite of it everyone can change his life in the way he wishes. Everyone should or even has to do it, because unfortunately we have only one life, which is really short. Live, not simply exist. This is the thing that we have to understand.

To tell the truth every person has his own potential to become great. Our personality hides many secrets, that we can investigate during all the life. Many abilities and talents are in this potential. One can be a wonderful musician, one — a perspective artist and so on. If we don’t develop our talents, they will disappear in the life’s race. Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you die — that’s the proverb.

Our road to the happiness can be not so smooth and easy, but stony and difficult. Problems have an opportunity to prevent you from being a full personality, but to stop in the middle of the way is silly, isn’t it? Believe in yourself and never stop fighting — that’s the main advice for your way. Horace once said: “He will always be a slave who does not know how to live upon a little”.

Nevertheless in every situation you should stay a kind person. If you are able to notice the beauty of the world, then it’s all right. Rest is also very important. Rest for your mind and soul. Come outside, look at the sun, smile at the new day, smell a flower and become happy at this moment. Your main happiness is your life — don’t forget.

“Just living is not enough," said the butterfly, "one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower.” - Hans Christian Andersen 

Delivered by Ivan Mulenkov, Winner of the nomination “For Sensitivity and Integrity”,school 1738.

What is living? For many people living is enjoying life. We can enjoy sunshine, nature and freedom of self-expression. We can enjoy sharing with other people. I agree with the ideas of famous American photographer Ansel Adams who hoped that his photos would encourage self-expression in others and stimulate the search for beauty and creative excitement in the great world around us.

It all started when I was turning 13 years old. Some friends of mine advised me to install a well-known app – Instagram – on my mobile phone. It was amazing! I found lots of people with brilliant photography skills and I started to follow their weblogs. Since that time I’ve been slowly getting the shared ideas of what photography is. I’ll never stop admiring this mysterious art of captured emotions and movements.

At present I’m a happy owner of two cameras. I take lots of photos and think that I’m doing some progress. You can see mostly people on my photos. And you know what? I find it easier to choose models for my pictures among people who are not very familiar to me. Usually family and friends are not so good posing in front of my camera because they don’t act naturally. As for strangers, they don’t have in mind who I am and what I’m doing, so they can show their happiness or sadness freely.

Looking through some of my photos, I realize that the people on them will always be the same while in real life they keep changing – growing older, changing their mood or even passing away. That’s the most fascinating thing about photography.

There are certain disadvantages of being obsessed with photography, however. For the last few months I’ve been having difficulty with just watching a beautiful scene or exciting activity. I need to choose a right angle, think about lighting, shadow and other stuff. I can’t be relaxed at such moments. My camera has become a means to perceive the world around me.

In my opinion, to take a really good picture is not just shoot something that you call “deep” or “emotional”, and then apply a cool filter. It’s more about communication with a person who is your model or about your attitude to the situation that you find yourself in. That’s the secret.

I hope that you could get my ideas. I’m just a beginner amateur photographer, but I feel I have learned people better since I took up photography. The art of photography gives me the freedom of self-expression and makes my life complete. Ansel Adams said, “When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.” I wish my images were good enough to speak to people.

Once I read in a  magazine for teenagers: A 5-year-old girl says ‘My mum knows everything’. A fifteen-year-old girl says ‘My mum doesn’t know anything’. A twenty-year-old girl says ‘Oh, my! I should have done what my mum always told me’.

Of course, you may say that when you are twenty years old, you are an adult, not a boy or a girl. But… It happens so that only at the age of twenty or thirty most people understand that their mothers are right and usually give us good advice.

One of the most valuable life lessons I've learned from my mum is how to be a good mother.  Although she was very strict with me in my early childhood, she was an amazing single mother of three daughters and during that time she was able to take care of us without receiving help from anyone.

I remember how once I asked her, “Mummy, are you kind?” because I wanted her to buy me something pretty that all kids had. But she answered, “I can’t afford being kind today and buy you something unnecessary”. I understood what she meant and stopped begging for treats. I understood that there were more important things than buying another toy because my mum always gave me her helping hand when I really needed it.

Moreover, my mum never gave me pocket money. She wanted me learn about the value of money and that it needs great effort to earn it. She often talked about her hard work (she is a doctor) and what she had to do to earn money to pay for food, clothes and our holiday travels. This way I have learned that money doesn’t grow in trees or in my mum’s wallet.

I am someone who tends to worry about everything, but not my mum. She feels that there is no need to borrow trouble by worrying about things that you can't control. Of course, you can plan for the future, but you can't control it. There are words of wisdom, which she told me, “My Lord, give me strength to change things that I can change, give me patience to accept the things that I cannot change. And, please, Lord, give me enough brain to distinguish one thing from the other”. I learned that we should improve and care about our lifestyle, education and health. But there is no need worrying about matters of politics or bad weather which are in God’s power.

So many different people provided me with both inspiration and valuable life lessons. They were people I read about, my teachers, friends, or total strangers. Anyway, my family provided me with the best life lessons. Usually, teenagers like to protest and argue. I am a fifteen-year-old teenager, but I will never say that my mother doesn’t know what life is.

Who has inspired you or influenced your life?

Learn from others. Never consider yourself so above someone else that you can’t learn something new from them. And your life will change if you appreciate that trait.

It’s beyond question that all people are different. They live in different countries and speak different languages. But there is one thing that unites us all – a wish to be HAPPY. Everyone wants to be happy, to be among their nearest and dearest, to be loved and respected by them. How can happiness be achieved?

It’s really a complicated question. Just living is not enough – eating, doing everyday chores, raising children, making money… All men have their own way of perceiving and estimating the world. We all have to explore and find the true zest of our life – a little flower that makes our lives brighter, full of sense and meaning.

It’s no exaggeration to say that while designating the zest of life, all people mean different things. For someone it’s travelling, because they feel free and independent. They forget about their problems and everyday routine, try to concentrate on their personal interests. For others it’s being face to face with nature – picnicking, bird watching, gathering mushrooms. They enjoy being a part of nature, relaxing and restoring their strength. Such imponderable events are those little “flowers” that embellish their lives.

I am absolutely sure that our life is kind of rainbow. Why are all of us always fascinated seeing a rainbow? Firstly, it’s a feast for our eyes to watch it. Secondly, and it’s an interesting fact, there is a pot of gold buried at the end of every rainbow. And the purpose of everyone is to find this pot in the course of their life. On the one hand the task is apparently easy. Why, if so, can’t all of us achieve this seemingly easy purpose? It depends on people’s personal desire to make their life better, because we make our own heaven and hell. Everyone has their piece of Sun which helps them to live life to the fullest. It can be Work of Choice, music, literature, travelling and … children. All these components of our life can give us an opportunity to always be in high spirits and view life with optimism. Will you agree with me that all before-mentioned philosophy has to explain to us that if we have ideas, we should share and try them, because if we don’t try, we’ll never get.

In conclusion I’d like to state once again that every Man on Earth is an artist, a creator of his life, and he IS able to discover something new and bright to fill his life with a new meaning and zest.

Would you like to embellish your life, to make it shimmer with new colours, or are you satisfied with just living?

What makes a hero today?

Delivered by Sergei Volkov 1st Prize, 10 grade

ГБОУ КШИ №1 «Первый Московский кадетский корпус»

Oh, what a question. One may ask...

A hero? Today? Impossible!

We are not living in the days of Crusades or in the days of the Borodino battle. We are not those 28 soldiers who died but stopped the Nazis near Moscow. They were the heroes and theirs is the glory, and the fame, and the memory eternal…

Allow me to disagree with this point of view, no matter how convincing it may seem. It is my firm belief that a hero is an ever — present category.

All people can become heroes at any given time, there are a lot of heroes, here and now, in this audience.

You, you, why not you? Why not us? (I'll try to prove my point.) Please, tell me, was it easy for you to come here? Was it easy to choose the proper words for your speech? To convince so many people? To be genuinely sincere?

The answer is an emphatic 'no'! It wasn't easy! — since we all had to overcome something — and very often that something we found inside ourselves. Yes, it was our own inertia, laziness, fearfulness.

A great philosopher once said: «You have a great power if this is power over yourself...»

And here is my motto for everyday life: 'Rise up to the challenge! And sour up over the routine!' This became my motto when I realized one simple thing: today you have to be a little better, a little stronger, a little brighter than you were yesterday. Never compete with others, compete only with yourself...

The most natural sphere for people to excel is, undoubtedly, their profession. Look at our teachers: at night they check copy-books with unreadable handwriting, they repeat the same simple things hundreds of times before they are safely 'installed' in our often inflexible brains...Are not they heroes?

Look at our doctors who every day save people's lives.

Imagine yourself when you happen to be the first person on this planet, to hold the newly-born baby, to feel its fragile skin — and its gigantic, divine energy and strength...

Look at our parents who work so hard  to make their children just a little happier.

Look at our journalists, pilots, our military men (I myself come from a military family, that's why I chose the military career)

And mind the time we are living through now — the heaviest gravest crisis our country has ever experienced...

The biggest and the most bitter information war has been waged against us... Our brothers and sisters are dying in the cruel, pointless war...

Isn't it time to gain the power inside your fist? Isn't it time to save the world yet again...? We need you, heroes! Rise up to the challenge! Can you hear? The drummers are already at the head of the column!  Rise and fight back! Yours will be the glory and the fame and the memory eternal...

Thank you.

The most important lesson my life has taught me.

Delivered by By Nikita Kiselev, 1st Prize, 10th Grade, School №1208.

Have you ever found yourself sitting over a cup of tea or just daydreaming

in your armchair trying to figure out, what is going on in your life and why? I bet

you have. It is as natural as the fact that the sun still shines, that people try to get

closer and closer to «The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe,

and Everything». And what I find most amazing is that we can study literally

from every single thing we meet on our way. It is part of the Master Plan that,

whether we want it or not, we learn hundreds of lessons each day.

At first, we start with some very simple ones. And there is even no achievement of ours in

that. Such basic skills like breathing, seeing, hearing and what not are, say, our

start-up capital, gifted to us by nature. But our life is not that simple. While

animals can get by with a set of some primitive instincts, we, humans, cannot.

Just open any manual on social studies and most probably one of the first phrases

you’ll see there is: “Man is a biosocial being”. So that’s why everyone needs to

take care of his social side.

And there I go back to my armchair with a noble goal of reaching the enlightenment.

This time I will succeed! Many years have passed,

lots of events have taken place, I have read quite a lot of books… Seems like there

can be no more discoveries to make… for just one second. Then I realize that our

world is such an incredible, enormous, fabulous place, that there is absolutely no

chance of any human on Earth knowing at least 1% of its wonders. But we should

never stop our curiosity and maybe one day, after thousands of years of intense

researching our descendants will be able to fully appreciate the conception of the

Universe.

So does life actually teach us any lessons or is it just we, the people,

who can analyze the world around us deep enough to think that life teaches us

lessons? Probably, it just sometimes gives us little tips of at least how not to be a

man with a fork in a world of soup. For us, those, who, at this stage of

development, cannot comprehend this whole great kingdom of life scientifically,

happiness may be concluded in simplifying it mentally. “Man is a biosocial being”.

So that’s why everyone needs to take care of both biological and social sides.

We were born by nature, just like billions of creatures we share this planet with. So

we all are tiny little parts of the engine, the power of which I don’t even have

enough words to describe. Though, at the same time everyone lives in his own

world. There is no way you find two people, who see life absolutely alike. One

human brain is much stronger than all kinds of computers ever created. And only

a human can see the pure beauty of this world, to feel love, to have the sense of

unity. Because in the end of the day there is

One love,

One life,

When it’s one need

In the night.

One life,

But we’re not the same,

We get to

Carry each other… Carry each other…

So here are the most important lessons I learned from my life: faith in

humanity, faith in beauty, faith in love!

Thank you!

What makes a hero today?

Delivered by Shakaryan Grigory, 1st Prize, 9th Grade, School 920                                              We rarely raise such an urgent question.                                                                               Though, today a tremendous amount of actions characterizing a heroic deed go unnoticed because of those never — ending everyday errands and routines.  Unfortunately, that is how it is today! Don’t you all think that in ancient times there were more opportunities to become a hero rather than there are today?

The old legends tell us about the fearless and stalwart knights who would fight bravely for their kingdoms and defeat fire-dragons. There are many chronicles and memorials from the battlefields when a brave action for your country could turn a simple soldier into a hero.  All those momentous events have already become our history. They remain in the past.

What makes a hero today?

You might consider it laughable or even ridiculous, but I truly believe that MUSIC, just one song, has the power to inspire a normal person to accomplish a heroic deed and make him a true hero. I believe that boundaries between heroes and common people basically do not exist – anyone can become a hero today.

Why don’t we look at our history? In times of World War II the songs honoring our huge homeland, songs about love for our Motherland — they united people into one strong entity. They empowered people to fight for their country, to save our women, children and the whole motherland. They sacrificed their lives, but DID NOT name themselves as heroes. However they all were and still are true heroes. I hope, that you would agree with me that bravery, courage and love for your homeland make any person a true hero.

Ladies and Gentlemen, please, listen to these words attentively:  “Yes, the message is so real, Don’t turn all The earth to stone because, because this is your home” I wish people all over the world would hug our planet and try their utmost to protect it from ecological wars, tsunami, floods, earthquakes and other dangerous events. If only it was possible. In the past 2 years alone there have been disasters in the Krasnodarsky region and in Siberia. Big cities and small villages were harmed by high water. It was a tragedy for thousands of people; however nobody was left alone in their lurch. Sympathy, kindness, compassion, willingness to help when the trying hour comes – that is what makes a hero today.

“ Not  gonna get us! They're not gonna get us!’ Does it look familiar to you? The Opening of every Olympics starts with the hymn, the song of a nation. The song motivates our sportsmen to gather the courage and strength, and ultimately win the competition. The ability to overcome difficulties, the will to victory makes a hero today. And the winners of the Olympic and the Paralympic Games in Sochi in Russia have proved it.

Oh! What can I say…  Serenades, serenades! Here is another way to become a hero today. A man who serenades a love song full of passion and affection to his beloved woman – isn’t he a hero? No doubt, it is an act of bravery from any man! Listen to these captivating words:” Is there anybody going to listen to my story All about the girl who came to stay? She's the kind of girl you wants so much it makes you sorry Still you don't regret a single day Ah, girl, girl, girl”.  No girl can say “No” to such love, she will immediately agree to his offer of marriage. What I am trying to say is that fighting for love and strong family relationship is one more way to become a hero today.

But what about becoming a hero to yourself ? When one has lost his faith and hope, or has gone through betrayal of his soul mate, he should listen to the song : “I'll top the bill, I'll overkill I have to find the will to carry On with the On with the show The show must go on..." or  "I'm beautiful in my way ' Cause god makes no mistakes I'm on the right track baby I was born this way Don't hide yourself in regret Just love yourself and you're set I'm on the right track baby I was born this way” and make the words of this song as  a motto in his life. I believe that the Victory over our own fear, selfishness and insecurity can make each of us a hero.

Once again, what makes a hero today? In my opinion, all the above mentioned actions and qualities have magical power to bring energy, light and kindness into this world. Let’s tune into the “radio wave of kindness all together.” If every person on this planet did it, the world would become a better place. The person who has taken the first step towards it can already consider him– or herself a hero. I wish you would believe that our world has always needed its heroes, those people who work towards peace and common welfare of the community. Just as the song says «Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the flood, We can feel his approach, like a fire in our blood, like a fire in our blood We need a hero! We’re holding out for a hero 'till the end of the night, He's gotta be strong, And he's gotta be fast, And he's gotta be fresh from the fight! ».

Wait a second – what if we don’t need to wait for a Superman who would save us all and accomplish all those heroic deeds? Why don’t we turn to the people around us, simply smile and share our good mood –and make a small first step toward a better world for all of us. What we need to be happier is each other! Let’s try to become heroes for those people around us. NOW!  I hope I have convinced you.
