Questioning Skills
At its most basic level, a question is a sentence or phrase used to obtain information. But in a business context a question is also used as a technique to help people develop their understanding and skills.
Asking the right question is fundamental to clear communication, to check what people already know, identify gaps in knowledge and check understanding.
