Joe Ingram explains Questions are they good or bad?
Closed questions
\nUseful for: warming up group discussions, getting a quick answer
\nOpen questions
\nUseful for: critical or creative discussion, finding out more information about a person or subject
\nProbing questions
\nUseful for: seeing the bigger picture, encouraging a reluctant speaker to tell you more information, and avoiding misunderstandings
\nLeading questions
\nUseful for: building positive discussions, closing a sale, steering a conversation towards an outcome that serves your interest
\nLoaded questions
\nUseful for: discovering facts about someone who would otherwise be reluctant to offer up the information
\nFunnel questions
\nAs with a funnel, these questions begin broadly before narrowing to a specific point \u2014 or vice versa.
\nRecall and process questions
\nUseful for: encouraging critical thought and in-depth evaluation of a subject in tests, interviews or discussions
\nRhetorical questions
\nUseful for: persuading people, building engagement
