Meeting #924

Born Different

Word of the dayHolistic

A Two-Speaker Evening

Meeting 924 ran with only two prepared speeches after several last-minute cancellations. Tao stepped in on short notice to replace a cancelled speaker, delivering a storytelling project about his admiration for singer-songwriter Joanna Wang. Min took the stage for the longer second half with “Born Different,” a PI5.3 project exploring personality differences through the lens of MBTI.

MBTI Buzz

Min’s speech sparked engagement days before the meeting itself. Members took the MBTI personality test and shared their results in the group chat, turning the pre-meeting conversation into a lively exchange about personality types and how they shape communication styles.

“We might not need back up in this case since Min’s prepared speech is going to take about 22mins”

Table Topics

Brent led the Table Topics session with a thought-provoking question: should capable employees be liable to do more work? The word of the day, “Holistic,” encouraged speakers to think beyond surface-level answers.
