Demonstrative Communication Paper
Demonstrative Communication is a type of communication that observes non verbal cues. Some examples of non-verbal cues include tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language. Demonstrative communication is one where gestures are employed. It’s known as non-verbal communication, which deals with the sending and receiving messages. Demonstrative communication is formatted by one’s body language, written language, and some non verbal communication that causes the main point of observing the key words of communication, which deals with grasping the tone, facial expressions, and voice communication. When interring with the wrong concepts of communication is listening, which when we communicate we do not. Listen promotes accuracy of message conveyed. For example, when a sender sends a message using body language the receiver can interpret the importance or mood by the use of body language.

A pause creates a sense of significance and credibility to a message. Another communication that is called face to face is 90 percent more effective then writing a message and word themselves only convey seven percent of an intended message. Demonstrative communication involves being focus on the other 93 percent of communication and reinforces the message being conveyed. A common mistake among speakers is they use a so call filler words, for example “um, like, you know” which distracts and deemphasizes the right message. The tone of someone is provided by the context of the massage. A ineffective demonstrative communication can have many negative effects like a misunderstanding in the office or personal life. For example, a speaker’s tone of voice is forceful, loud and patronizing then he would be an ineffective
