The most common mistake in asking questions is to ask a closed question when you actually want the other person to expound. This is technically a closed question, designed for a yes or no answer. Fortunately, in our culture, most people will give you a polite answer even when you ask the wrong type of question. Asking the correct type and style of question makes it easier for the people around you to provide the appropriate answer. When you ask wise questions, others will applaud your insight and your understanding, even when they are doing most of the talking.
Sincere questions are a great conversation starter.
Good questions are good for everyone involved. All rights reserved. Gary Lockwood is Increasing the Effectiveness and Enhancing the Lives of CEOs, business owners and professionals. Gary Lockwood is Your Business Coach. Grow your business , make more money and have more fun .
