Student leadership training workshop- level 3,the power of influence

On monday, 6th of August, i attened this workshop and the trainer , Freddy , talk about self-esteem and showed us two videos. One of the videos is about a girl, Connie, 6 years old joined 'Britain's got talent' and sings 'somewhere over the rainbow' and impressed the judgers.

She is only 6 years old and she dare to sing in front of so many audience but she isn't afriad of anything. She is so amazing, so soulful at her age and she managed the controlling of her range of voice so well.

Unlike her, the other guy named Paul, he has low self-esteem and no confidence in himself but managed to be the champion of the 'Britain's got talent'...! And the winner of this, will get to sing in front of the Queen. As usual, the judgers were so surprised by his performance.




We learn that

-communication is 7% words, 38%tone and 55% body language . And that how these 3 things afffect the respond you get , such as everyone has a different perspective of things in life ,when someone resist to an idea , every action, cause and effect is a base has a positive reason behind it and that a person with the most strategy and is able to carry them out...etc.

-The meaning of rapport. Raport is gained when we increase similarities and decrease differences and is very useful in the context of meetings, trainings and even one to one communication. When rapport is established with someone, the person will be more open to your suggestions and influence.



Overall, i find this workshop quite useful and i learn to have confindence in myself and in things that i do. Let's hope that the school will organise more of this workshop for the student leaders in our school.


Lastly, i wished everyone a Happy National Day..! And Happy Birthday to Singapore..!
