🌈🌈More About the Speaker
🌹“Reliving the experience on the big stage in 2022 was such a crazy experience! I felt alive! The energy, the people, the community! Everything made it worthwhile to be there,” he enthused.
His speech, “Two Gifts.” blends humor, self-awareness, and insight gained from his parents, an amiable father and a stern mother with high expectations for her son. He began to avoid his mother and, with a nod to his degree in psychology, somewhat jokingly labeled her with “Heartless Mother Disorder.” It was not until the two sat down to talk that their relationship was completely transformed by listening and understanding.
“In today’s world we witness so much labeling and avoiding that divide us, but a listening ear and understanding heart are two gifts that unite us. Give them to anyone and everyone,” Mahathir said.
While his message was serious, Mahathir sprinkled humor throughout his speech, even though it’s a technique he struggled with at first. He credits mentors, friends, and coaches for helping him find humor “in the simplest things.” Now, believing it’s a bonding bridge to audiences, he uses humor in many of his speeches and presentations.
Communication is his beloved hobby and life’s work. He is the founder of MicFront Academy, which emphasizes confidence and enthusiasm, among other traits, to teach public speaking skills to adults and children in Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and other locations.
Although the 2022 competition is over, Mahathir is continuing as a firm believer in all the long term benefits of Toastmasters International.
“Great things take time, and the more you’re involved in Toastmasters, the more you understand how to further develop and grow yourself,” he says.
