SpeechCraft

Hey, guys. I know it's been ages since I last update my blog. I've been real busy recently. I've attended a speechcraft last weekend. It was organized by my club, Money Mastery KL Toastmaster Club. First of all, let me explain briefly about Toastmaster, for those who has not heard of this club before. Toastmasters International is a nonprofit educational organization based in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. Through club activities and conferences, Toastmasters helps its members improve their communication and leadership skills while fostering self-confidence and personal growth.

So, what is speechcraft is all about? Well, my club organized a 2 day event to a company, MechMar at Glenmarie to teach their 20 managers about public speaking and communication skill. I'm just a helper to the facilitator. However, I learned a lot and really have a lot of fun.

his is my team with the participants, Mr. President and facilitator.

My mentor, Mr. Paul Tan

My respected Mr. President, Tuan Haji Hashim

Another team of Speechcrafter

I thought that I'll be there to be "free-labor", volunteering to help out while I can learned more and gained more experience. I'm very happy and touched that, actually everything that we've done was deeply appreciated by the speechcrafters and their director. I've received a small token of appreciation from the company. It is not the present that make me feel appreciated. It was when the executive director, Mr. K.L. Loh, shake my hand and uttered the word "thank you". I felt that the word came out truly from his heart.

Tada....here's my present.... Thank yo, Mechmar.

A book about leadership.... ok... I'll faster finish reading this book.... :)
