Power Presentation - The Subtle Way Part II

Yet another successful and enriching workshop by our speaker, CC, CL, Ronald Lim. The lesson for the day was the usage of chiasmus, a form of antitheses, in our speeches. The session was indeed informative and interesting with Han Wen tossing out ideas which can be used for marketing buffet lunches, "Eat all you can! Can you eat all?"

To reinforce session, we encouraged participants to write down table topics with the use of chiasmus. There were plenty of bright sparks who had lots of ideas flowing that marked an early Valentine's Day celebration at Cheng San TMC, with love-related topics. The topics include: Ask not what love can do for you but what you can do for love. And, Do you love to regret of regret not loving? The timing sequence for the table topics went slightly haywired and some enjoyed V.I.P status with double the talk time. And that's what we call maximising your membership fees in the club. The exposure and knowledge gained from these workshops serve us well because they are fun and we will certainly rememeber and apply them in our speeches.

Thank you so much Daniel, Shui Sheng, Yin Jie, Shenoy, Ronald, Manoj, Hwee Ling, Fui Long, Han Wen, Chay Buay, Tricia, and Shuling for attending this workshop. A huge thanks to Ronald who has volunteered to do this workshop for the development of our members. He is definitely an example for us to emulate. As quoted from an audience today:

Let's do the best for the rest and let the rest do their best.
