Communication Skills

Being able to questioning effectively will help you to:

  • Facilitate learning
  • Build commitment to solutions and plans
  • Empower

 

Four ideas to increase your success in asking questions include:

  1. Be prepared to record any important details.   A short pencil is better that a long memory.
  2. Frame questions positively. Instead of asking “What went wrong?” ask “What could be done differently?”88,
  3. Support by asking, “How can I help?  ”Learn by ask, “What would you do?”  Empower by asking, “What do you think we should do?”  Innovate by asking, “What are our competitors going to do?”
  4. Listen to the answers provided.  If the issue is complicated, demonstrate your understanding by paraphrasing the question before you respond.
