Melissa V Margolius
Elaine Nieberding
About Me: Many decades ago, my first job was at an organizational development and training firm. A wise and warm woman became my unofficial mentor, and put the seed of joining Toastmasters (or a Toastmistress group?) into my psyche. Even though I'd found soul-expression in performing, singing, teaching, motivational speaking and video-livestreaming to varied audiences over decades, it wasn't until 2018 that I found my way to Toastmasters (online) in Online Presenters. I'm so grateful. In OP I've grown leadership skills as VPPR and VP-Membership.
My life work has always had a focus on uncovering and developing personal and group potential. Currently a transformation coach expanding from serving entrepreneurs into more executive and team coaching, my roots are in holistic caring. A foundation of skill in integrative health approaches and energy medicine (Reiki) surprisingly flipped into bringing those approaches into caregiving as an RN after turning 50.
Holistic nursing paved the way for my entry into coaching and wellness teaching as an entrepreneur and livestream broadcaster. TLC is a theme I weave into speeches, interviews and workshops, where playful engagement is employed for helpful solutions. Today's Laughter Care has been my most frequent audience-interactive program theme for wellness guidance and perceptual shift. How may I help you? Reach me at LeadWithTLC@gmail.com

Anusorn Swasdee, DTM
About Me: I want to improve my ears for multinational accents of English and spread Tinglish around the world. Just kidding!!! Actually, I'd like to survive communication, have a relax chat, and improve inter-person relationship. ? I'm working as a Technical Officer in Space Affairs Center, Defence Information and Space Technology Department, Office of the Permanent Secretary for Defence, Ministry of Defence, Thailand. It's the policy-related brance of Thai Defence. In technical and engineering field, we can't wait for knowledge to be translated into Thai language; we have to read from English sources. ? I'm more of an objective guy. Set targets and use any mean to achieve them. Don't like subjectives much; they can't be measured exactly and tends to interfere with communication. ? After work, I like to swim because it's a good aerobic exercise and has less impact on my hip and knees. I like swimming slowly and using elliptical trainers. Basically, all non-impact exercises are my favourites. I also read Thai and English versions of J light novels and watch Daily Show and Netflix. ? I've finished Traditional DTM in 2019, Presentation Mastery and Dynamic Leadership both in 2018. I'm now doing Engaging Humor with Buddies, Innovative Planning with Bangkok Club and Visionary Communication with Capitol Toastmasters Club.
