This week’s message has to do with what I have come to refer to as “the pause.” The idea for today’s podcast originated from an email I received from Alan Weiss earlier in the week. Alan is a highly respected business coach, speaker and consultant.
In his particular email he was talking about the importance of listening before responding. I was immediately reminded of a lesson I learned long ago as a professional speaker of how the proper use of silence can enhance your everyday communications.
The particular tactic featured in today’s podcast is affectionately known as “the pause.”
Take a listen and you will soon see exactly what I’m talking about.

March 17th, 2025 | Length 00:03:36It happened to me again this week. Not once. Not twice. But three times. A name popped into my head and I decided to contact that person, but I failed to act. You guessed it. They contacted me which resulted in the same lame response. "I was just thinking about…
