Details of Club Meeting on 280608
In our last meeting, 2 toastmasters stood out for their 'firsts': Niole - serving as Acting President and Hong Yue - serving as a Timer. Liu Lie and Nicole achieved the status of Competent Communicator (CC), ensuring that the club attains the status of President Distinguished Club. Two members from other clubs (AIA Changi, Chua Chu Kang) also achieved CC.
It was indeed an inspiring meeting with 5 inspiring speeches given. Song Lang gave a speech about himself. Nicole spoke about the need for proper time management and why some people are always busy, while Liu Lie touched on the connection of Kung Fu Panda and Asian Values. Rubel spoke about dealing with our fears and Mohamad motivated us with his speech on why the pursuit of materialism is meaning less.
And it was not just about the speeches. The evaluators also gave us a very insightful and useful evaluation on improving the speakers speeches.
The word of the day is Zest, and it was with full of zest that the speakers used the word, making the meeting full of zest and energy.
The general evaluator Fernando Young felt that the speeches are not inspired enough, so he gave some tips how to make a speech inspired:
1. what is your dream
2. how to oversome obstables
3. what will life be if we do not fullfill how dreams
4. what will life be is we succeed
5. call for action
6. give words for encouragement: you can do it, everybody can do it
7. inject more vocal variety and body language
On the whole, the meeting was very interesting and exciting. To top off such a fantastic meeting was the views and comments provided by our Language Evaluator, Advanced Leader (Silver) Rebecca Lee and General Evaluator, Advanced Leader (Gold), Fernando Young. The club would like to congratulate all the speakers who have attatined the rank of Competent Communicator and would also like to express our gratitude to the following evaluators : James Keok, Stanley Chen, Delia Wong, Jave Zhou, Lim Chung Wei for their help. Our next meeting will be on the 12th of July. So come on down for another meeting !
