Get What You Ask For!
November 2, 11:30 am – 1 pm
No one likes to feel interrogated. Under almost any circumstance, people have more reasons to withhold what they know, than to share it. Questions can be perceived as invitations or attacks, depending on how you ask them. The key to encouraging people to commit to sharing information is to allow them to save face. Executing effective questioning strategies can achieve this.

What you will learn:
- Six reasons for asking questions
- Five types of questions preferred by Certified Forensic Interviewers
- The best applications of each type of question
- How to reverse engineer your strategy to set up your most important question
- Specific techniques to help your respondent protect their self-image
