Ladies and Gentlemen,
a mark of any great entity, any great club, any great organization lies are the stable of talents it has.
It that enough?
No, these talents needs to be given the opportunity and freedom to express their freedom.
Once they have that, not only the entity, club or organization grows and prosper.
The lives of people affiliated with the club, entity and organization will also be enriched
On 4th Feb, 50 participants, Tampines Changkat TMC and Toastmaster were enriched by the Tampines Changkat TMC Language Evaluation and Table topic workshop.
This workshop was the fruit of two of our brightest talents, Coen Tan, JinHwui.
They were wholehearted and sincere in their sharing.
The contents were great, but what made the sharing powerful was the unique and creative personal touch in transferring the knowledge to the audience.
The 50 participants in the auditorium got the message, not only did they got, they are inspired to act on the these new found knowledge and skills.
Don't believe me? Check this out:
Quote:
"Thank you for the great tips you shared with us at the Language workshop, including lessons on “chunking”. I hope to emulate you somewhat and become a proficient language evaluator as well as a captivating speaker that others enjoy listening to. It was a great show, with valuable lessons for the participants. I definitely took away more than many other workshops I have attended."

The workshop created change:
At a personal level, the participants will become better listeners, thinkers and speakers
At toastmasters level, we will hear better impromptu speeches and there will be more language evaluators
At a societal level, the world will have less conflicts, as good thinking and speaking forms the crux of communication.
After all, communication (or rather miscommunication) is the source of most conflicts
Such an life changing workshop did not just materialized from thin air, it took place because of heroes who made it happened:
The lead trainers: Coen, JinHwui
Organizing chairs: Coen and Matthew
Appointment holders: Ted, Wesley and Andrew
Thank you, you guys make a difference.
Dear members, remember the "Why?", the reason to joining TM?
From this example please take this back: When you materialize the "Why", not only yourself will grow.
Your club, toastmasters, and the society will prosper through your actions.
Just as how the efforts of Coen, JinHwui, Matthew, Ted, Wesley and Andrew, have touched the the lives of the 50 participants, toastmasters and the society.
Remember: BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THIS WORLD!!!
Below are some of the memories from the workshop!
