Recommendation

Former CNN anchor and White House correspondent Frank Sesno spent his career asking questions. Based on his “taxonomy of questions,” he explores the value of inquiry. Each chapter covers a different type of question, including “diagnostic, bridging, confrontational, mission, interview, legacy,” and more. Sesno also discusses interviewing experiences, and he includes a helpful guide to possible questions you might ask within each category. getAbstract recommends his helpful manual to executives, managers, media professionals, teachers, health care practitioners and anyone who uses questions every day.

  • To use inquiry effectively, master asking different types of questions, including:
  • “Diagnostic” questions help you get to the heart of the matter and zero in on the problem.
