Invitation to the Meeting Tomorrow, Dec. 21, 2012‏

Dear all YSTC members and our friends,
I have invited lieutenant Governor Eric Liang(Pingtung Toastmasters Club) to be our keynote speaker tomorrow, and he will share his experience of 2012 Toastmasters International Convention for 30 minutes. It is a great opportunity to broaden your vision toward Toastmasters, so you should not miss. 

Also, our meeting theme tomorrow is Christmas, so I will prepare two middle cakes and drinks to celebrate this special holiday. It is another reason that you shouldn't miss.

專業演講的要素

演講效果3V要素 _______Dr. Albert Mehrabian
Verbal(內容)7%,Vocal(語音)38%,Visual(外觀)55%
Mehrabian所說的或許有些言過其實,尤其是演講內容僅佔不到一成的比例,然而他點出了影響演講成功與否的三個重要要素:充實的演講內容、抑揚頓挫的語音效果與整體令人信服的外觀。
