Recommendation

In this comprehensive exploration, seasoned professional interrogator James Pyle and co-author Maryann Karinch highlight the psychological nuances of asking questions and analyzing answers. Heeding their advice will strengthen the questions you ask in your professional, social and family sphere. The authors’ occasional repetitiveness and reliance on multiple categorical lists are perhaps excusable – given the key fundamentals they establish as they break down the information your questions elicit into granular categories for analysis. They even explore the subtle word choices you make when crafting questions. Their advice is useful any time – on dates, during job interviews, at parties, or whenever you need to ask questions and create or deepen rapport. getAbstract recommends their clear program to anyone seeking to develop good communication skills and to elicit more information from others.

Take-Aways

  • Asking the right questions elicits the answers you want, earns rapport and improves your thinking.
  • Craft questions that require narrative responses rather than just a “yes” or “no.”
  • The six most-effective types of questions are: “direct, control, repeat, persistent, summary and non-pertinent.”

    Vey poor... This is only a classification of types of questions. I don't feel more knowledgable after reading it. 10 wasted minutes.
