The meeting started at 3.40 p.m. which was 10 minutes behind the actual time. Due to the lack of Gaveliers in the meeting, our mentor, Dr. Asha decided to give us an educational session about communication. During this meeting, we welcomed 3 new guests : Emily, Sher-Lyn and William.
From this session, we know that the 3 main points of communication are: the Speaker, the Audience and Audio Visuals.
We also discussed about the factors we want in a speaker such as
interesting characters, confidence, knowledge and friendliness.
Some of the not-so-good factors would be:
not acknowledging audiences, impolite, bad body language, lack of loudness, no interaction and hypocrisy.
To cut the long story short, we had everyone including newcomers to prepare a speech and Dr. Asha evaluated us. Since there was no acting role-player present, Thevesh was the Grammarian, Amitaesh was the Timer and Jessie was the Ah-Counter. Every person in the room spoke well and the meeting ended on a high note despite not being a proper meeting.
To all Gaveliers who were not present, please take time to inform the Vice President Education whether you can make it to the meeting. Don't take things for granted, please.
