The secret to finding out anything you want to know is amazingly simple: Ask good questions.

Identify and practice good questioning techniques

Recognize types of questions to avoid

Know the questions required when hearing unconfirmed reports or gossip

Practice good listening techniques and exploit all leads

Determine when and how to control the conversation

Gain real expertise fast

Within professional interrogation circles, author James Pyle is known as a strategic debriefer--meaning there is no one around him more skilled at asking questions and getting answers. He has been training other interrogators in questioning techniques since 1989.
