Answer Difficult Questions
Tags:A friend gave me the following advice for answering hard questions:
- Avoid Adjectives
Don’t make judgments one way or the other. - State Facts
Make simple, declarative statements. - Stick to the Question
Don’t answer other questions that you want them to ask, just the questions they ask.
To summarize: don’t embellish. Talking too much will get you in more trouble than talking too little.
It was a random conversation, but I thought these were some good points. Maybe Roland Burris needs to read this!
