Last week, I had the privilege of attending the "Master of Ceremony and Protocol Training" led by the talented MC Rulli Suprayugo, organized by the Dinas Komunikasi dan Informatika Kota Malang. The event took place at the Grand Mercure Hotel Malang on Thursday, May 16, 2024. One of the key takeaways was the importance of confidence in public speaking, regardless of whether you are an introvert or extrovert. Once on stage, it’s like a switch flips, and you can feel an instant boost in confidence. Kak Rulli suggested that instead of practicing in front of a mirror, it's more effective to record videos on social media, as this helps improve both speaking skills and language proficiency. He also emphasized the importance of always presenting yourself professionally, whether you’re addressing a small neighborhood meeting or a large provincial event. Setting high professional standards ensures a positive perception. Preparation is crucial, so understanding the event details and knowing the guest list are key. Capturing the audience’s attention involves mastering voice techniques, and using diaphragmatic breathing ensures your voice projects well. Kak Rulli demonstrated that you can check if you're using the correct technique by feeling vibrations in your back. I hope the knowledge I have gained will be useful in enhancing my skills as a master of ceremonies and protocol officer, and that I can apply it in various professional opportunities in the future. With this new knowledge, I am confident that I can contribute more effectively to every event I host. Effective coordination with relevant parties is essential for smooth event execution. Huge thanks to MC Rulli Suprayugo and the Dinas Komunikasi dan Informatika Kota Malang for this invaluable training session! #PublicSpeaking #ProfessionalDevelopment #EventManagement #MasterOfCeremony #ProtocolTraining #CareerGrowth #CommunicationSkills #VoiceTechniques

Let me start this by acknowledging that this should have been written in Bahasa Indonesia. A lot of the nuance is lost in English, but I'll try to retell this story anyway. So if you noticed, I put another title in my LinkedIn bio: "facilitator". After researching for so long about facilitating methods, especially for children and youth, it made sense to me to put it up there. (Hint: there's an exciting event brewing!) My professional journey had started with being an assistant facilitator in KerLiP. Facilitating looked straightforward to me, especially when the participants were doing it with big smile on their faces. However, the first time I stood in front of them as a solo facilitator, with mic on my hand, voice much louder from the speakers that I wasn't used to, I messed up huuuuge time. I remembered it was in Bandung, back in 2011 (or was it 2009?). Our participants were teachers, all older than me who was still a uni student at that time. I tried to paddle my way through every topic and addressed them with the word, "you". Multiple times. You see, in Bahasa Indonesia, there's a nuance of addressing people. Just addressing older people who happened to be professional in their respective fields as "kalian" ("you" in plural form in Bahasa)? Wow, totally disrespectful. Especially since I was young, bubbly, and nervous as hell. In the evaluation stage of that workshop, a teacher raised this topic and asked me to address them as "Bapak-Ibu semua". Hm, it might sound more natural in English as "all the teachers here/in this building/in this workshop", to be honest. The man gave the insight with a smile, but it did made me feel bummed, too shy to actually stand in front of older audience for a while. I'm doing better now, hopefully. Not only because I'm older than most participants in my events now. However, regarding that input, I certainly took it to heart, and it stayed with me for the rest of my experience in sharing things publicly to this day.

The price for being boastful After joining Toastmasters for quite some time, winning some speech contests, and being invited to speak at various events, I thought that I knew everything about public speaking. Then I started to become boastful and judgemental when it came to speeches and presentations. Every time I attended events involving public speaking, I criticized the speakers. But, of course, silently. No matter how good the speakers were, I always found mistakes in their speeches. I’d say to myself: “Oh dear, the speech structure is terrible.” “Boy, her vocal variety could be better than that.” “Hm, his hand gestures are so repetitive.” Etc. It wasn’t until one day I learned a lesson that I’d never forget. One day I was invited to speak at a university in Surabaya. The event that I thought would be a success turned out to be a disaster — I totally messed up! No matter how hard I tried, the audience of 200 students didn’t seem to listen. My presentation did not resonate with them, so they remained busy with their own things: smartphones, talking with friends, or just daydreaming. Even though I still received the payment from the university, I felt terribly guilty. And the feeling remained long after that embarrassing event. At that point, I finally reflected on the experience and learned an important lesson from it: no matter how good we are as an individual, there’s always things that we still don’t have or know yet. And being boastful is always wrong. That trait could blind us, hindering our ability to improve ourselves. Do you have a similar experience?

Our nationality and identity are not defined by ethnicity (pure-blood / non half-blood) or geographical area (where we live / where we work). Indonesia is not just a land, it’s not just a nation, it’s not just a country, Indonesia is not just a flag. Indonesia is US, Indonesia is YOU. Our nationality is not defined by where we live or where we work (like diaspora). You’re still part of Indonesia. No matter where you’re working now or where you’re studying now, just remember that you’re representing our beloved country to the world. LPDP awardee, global college student, global worker, you’re still part of Indonesia. Just give your best impactful shot to the world. You’re Indonesia, we’re Indonesia. You’re the representative of Indonesia 🇮🇩

Effective communication is the backbone of any successful organization. But sometimes, barriers get in the way and create misunderstandings and slow us down. Understanding and addressing these barriers is crucial to boost how we work together and reach our goals. --- Let me share with you my personal experience with a language barrier. When I started my hospitality career in Bali, our hotel held a traditional ceremony. After the ceremony concluded, we had lunch together in the backyard of our hotel temple. One of my colleagues said to me, "Pak, after lunch, it is good for us to have fruit for dessert. We have prepared 'gedang' for all of us." In my mother tongue, Javanese, "gedang" means banana. My fruit of choice. Interested in his offer, I was looking for the banana as he said. I did not find it. No banana was on the table; instead, they had sliced papaya. I called my colleague who offered me the "gedang," the banana. "Where's the banana? I could not find it," I protested to him. "We did not serve banana from the beginning; we served 'gedang', or papaya in Indonesian language." Only then did I realize that we used exactly the same word for two completely different things. In Balinese, "gedang" means papaya, while in Javanese, it means banana. Luckily, this case involved fruit/dessert, not something more serious. --- Check out the infographic below to see the different types of communication barriers in organizations and their impact. 👉 Which barriers did you experience? 👇 Share your thoughts in the comments! #Communication #BarriersOfCommunication #CommunicationSkills
