Your words are the spark that ignites ideas that will take off and make the difference in your field. Your ability to marshal your ideas, give critical feedback in meetings and to people, to give pertinent and insightful analysis that shows a razor-sharp brain without an acidic sharp tongue, galvanize a team, lead your company to success, comfort the disappointed and re-ignite their mojo, all this and more comes from your ability to communicate.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you have taken a course in business communication, or you got an A for project work, it does not mean you are fully equipped for oral communication at university or the workplace. The oral communication committee offers targeted and focused workshops in advanced skills.<\/p>\n<p>These workshops are designed to give you personalized hands-on practice and feedback that watching online tutorials cannot give you.<\/p>\n<p>Our workshops are designed to give just enough theory, so you know there is evidence for why the principles and practices work, and maximum practice and coaching time.<\/p>\n<p>From packing a punch with your words yet giving nonjudgmental but constructive feedback, you will take communication from transactional to relational.<\/p>\n<p>Communication is key to showing your sphere your value-add.

A large language model may have more bits than thousands of smart humans put together. In a working world where low level clerical jobs and even entry level graduate jobs are being replaced humans must keep their edge over AI. They must leverage on their human advantage. What do all humans have but no AI can ever have?<\/p>\n<p>Humans have physical bodies! AIs are disembodied machines incapable of making real connections. They only mimic our emotions and have a memory bank of possible experiences. Humans, however, can think, feel, experience, connect and maintain multi-way relationships. We connect with other humans when we use all our senses with our words to connect authentically, empathetically and critically. This is our superpower and our enduring edge over even the smartest AI.<\/p>\n<p><em>This workshop series encourages participants to integrate thinking, feeling, reflecting and then communicating by involving all their senses. \u00a0Participants learn to link together what&#8217;s on their minds with how to say that with heart, resulting in communication that is authentic, empathetic, yet critical.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0Our workshops draw on Embodied Critical Thinking (ECT) practices, engaging participants in guided experiential and hands-on activities that extend critical thinking beyond purely cognitive processes to include instinct, emotion, and lived experience, supporting deeper and more human-centred ways of relating and understanding.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Each in-person workshop focusses on a particular aspect of oral workplace communication and adopts an ECT-informed teaching approach<\/em>. <em>Participants will engage in authentic workplace scenarios, explore genuine emotional responses, and take part in realistic role-play activities that bridge theory and practice.

Participants also learned five levels of politeness strategies that could reduce face loss i.e. take out the sting, from these communication contexts.<\/p>\n<p>Are there higher levels of FTA in the workplace? Of course there are, e.g. when critical feedback verges on criticism, when probation is extended, when reprimands are needed.\u00a0 Here the sting must be clear, yet messengers must be mindful of the likely major collegial fallout. Knowing how to signal our good intentions despite the real threat in the message, helps hearers to receive difficult messages without outright rejection. Using ideas from <em>Embodied Critical Thinking (ECT) practices (Schoeller et al., 2024), we introduce our new STING strategies where words are connected to voice and other nonverbal communication clues to effect &#8220;healing&#8221; conversations.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Yes, we are using STING therapy from biology and medicine as a metaphor).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>In this 90-minute workshop, participants will:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Revise or learn the hamburger strategy for giving basic critical feedback.<\/li>\n<li>Use &#8220;STING&#8221; strategies to signal bad news with good intentions and fair play.<\/li>\n<li>Consider how they might receive painful critical feedback if given to them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Participants need NOT have attended The Honeyed Tongue to attend The Healing Sting.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Registration opening soon<\/strong><\/p>\n\t<h3><strong>Workshop Facilitators<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nus.edu.sg\/celc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/gl-cropped.png\" alt=\"gl-cropped\" height=\"2016\" width=\"2028\" title=\"gl-cropped\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n\t<b>Lee Gek Ling<br \/>\n<\/b><em>Senior Lecturer, Centre for English Language Communication<\/em>\n<p><strong>GL Lee<\/strong> is a Senior Lecturer at the Centre for English Language Communication.

This is where human communicative judgment offers an advantage over AI. While AI can easily deal with explicit communication, it struggles to interpret implicit contextual meanings and nuances in conversations (Eragamreddy, 2025). This 90-minute interactive workshop helps participants to strengthen their human advantage in recognizing power asymmetry and navigating the underlying tensions within conversations to maintain respectful dialogue. The workshop will discuss what subtext people may be conveying when they communicate indirectly such as omitting information, overloading with details, changing topic, using euphemisms, hedging, hinting, or even keeping silent. Participants will also learn how to create safe and inclusive conversation spaces for mutual collaboration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Registration opening soon<\/strong><\/p>\n\t<h3><strong>Workshop Facilitators<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nus.edu.sg\/celc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Yurni-1-cropped.png\" alt=\"Yurni-1-cropped\" height=\"240\" width=\"240\" title=\"Yurni-1-cropped\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n\t<b>Yurni Sirhan-Said<br \/>\n<\/b><em>Lecturer, Centre for English Language Communication<\/em>\n<p><strong>Yurni Sirhan-Said <\/strong>has taught academic and professional communication at various levels for 10 years.
