Creative use of pauses


Even the most thrilling of action movies have quiet moments for you to catch your breath, so should your presentations! There is no need to keep on talking non-stop while presenting. Used in the right way, a brief pause just after you have made a very critical point will allow your audience to digest what you said and amplify the significance of that point. Remember the phrase " The silence was deafening" ? In your next presentation, remind your self to slow down, at the critical points pause for a moment and allow what you just said to sink in.
