Emily is on ACM #51 date 28 September 2010
Dear Crystal Ladies,
Good news ! Our Emily Bong took up the challenge doing her Advance Manual #2 at ACM.
ACM is a fantastic platform for Toaastmasters who want to:-
a) receive EFFECTIVE and CONSTRUCTIVE feedback from not 1 but MANY evaluators
b) enhance your EVALUATION skill - the PARTICIPANTS can give feedback too
c) improve your LEADERSHIP skills by playing the role as facilitator or co-ordinator.
The way they conduct the meeting is different from what we normally have.
For the speakers, they are not only given panel but also open evaluations from the participants. Wow ! what a wonderful experience to have so many effective and constructive evaluations for your speech.
On that day, Emily presented the Project #2 : Resources for Entertainment and her speech title was "Seeing through the Eyes of a Caucasian". . The audience could almost pictured Emily Bong as the old fashion mother-in-law, has welcomed her "daughter" and her mat salleh (foreign) husband from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA); for visiting to Malaysia. It was indeed a culture shock for any "old people" to see and to understand how mat salleh behave and she found it unforgiving for a man to wear a "skirt", which in fact he wore a Scottish kilt.
Anyway, we should learn to respect and accept people from different background and culture though they are different from us. Thanks to her evaluators - Jerene Yap, Johnson Yike, Dinesh Kanna, and yours truly have given her an "entertaining" evaluation
I really salute her courage for transcending her TM skills to higher level. It is a great experience to be able to speak at ACM.
