I was very lucky to be selected from my group to join a conference hosted by our company headquarter last week.
After getting my badge，I went into the ballroom for lunch, where a couple of hundred people were sitting. Seeing a table with fewer people in the center of the room，I asked，"May I sit here?" "Of course!" Everybody around the table shook hands with me and we introduced each other. Suddenly, I realized that all of them were at the director level in our company. As I did not think it would be polite or wise to leave the table, I said," Wow, I am sitting at the leaders' table!" Everybody laughed and we started chatting friendly.
The director sitting next to me, who came from Connecticut, found my picture in the brochure of attendees and exclaimed, "Oh, your picture looks better than mine!" Then I asked him to show me his picture, and I said "Wow, you look much better than your picture!" Everybody at the table laughed out loudly.
"How come that picture was there? Why did not you put a better looking one？" I kept asking.
"Well, " he said, "my wife chose this picture and it was not under my control."
"hahaha......" everybody laughed again.
In the afternoon, we had a meeting during which the CEO started asking our opinions regarding our specialty. I raised my hand，and answered with my strong Chinese accent, "A @@@@@ is a “driver” who makes the @@@@ run and …..” (For privacy, omitted….words)
The CEO was so satisfied with my answer of“driver” that thereafter whenever he talked about any concept in my specialty about "driver", he always pointed at me (even though I changed my dress everyday) among the 200 people (East Asian less than 5%) in the ballroom. I remembered on the third day of the meeting, when I was chatting with Wenqing on my cell phone about the game (space survival exercise) I posted on MYSJ, the CEO mentioned this concept again. Of course, at that time, I was not paying much attention to his lecture. When another attendee besides me patted my back to remind me，I lifted my head and noticed both the CEO and president were pointing at me.
During the afternoon break, when I was picking up an ice-cream, the president in our company happened to stand right next to me. He said, "En, low-calorie ice cream." Wondering what my answer was? I did not know how come I was so brave（maybe I flooded the forum with posts too much？）and said，" I do not care about calories."
"Oh, you do not need to." Both of us laughed.
The above was my personal experience last week. A lady, with a strong Chinese accent, with enthusiasm to her career, with increasing communication skills through flooding the forum with posts daily, is more and more confident in front of all kinds of people, no matter who they are， the CEO, the president or directors....
P.S. My sincere suggestion, "Do you want to improve your communication skills? Please come to the forum and keep flooding it with posts everyday!"
再贴一次来唱坛贴的第一首外录中文歌《美丽》，谢谢飞雪提供伴奏。。嘎嘎。
前几天又出去开会，发现最近灌水少，写不出东西来了。所以灌水也是有好处滴。。嘎嘎。所以把两年前很能灌水时写的个人经历BSO再贴一下。。嘎嘎。：）
