FAQ
What is a famous quote about asking questions?
A prudent question is one-half of wisdom. One who never asks either knows everything or nothing.
What is the correct way of asking questions?
Asking direct but open questions makes your expectations clear and helps the listener answer appropriately. Avoid leading questions or shutting the conversation down after their response. Instead, use your question-asking skills to form genuine connections and improve your relationships — both at work and home.
What does asking the right questions mean?
A right question is any question that enlivens you, comes from a place of honest curiosity, and, as Berger notes, helps you to organize your thinking around what you don’t know.
What is the power of asking the right questions?
Questions and thoughtful answers foster smoother and more-effective interactions, they strengthen rapport and trust, and lead groups toward discovery. All this we have documented in our research. But we believe questions and answers have a power that goes far beyond matters of performance.
