About this listen
The secret to finding out anything you want to know is amazingly simple: Ask good questions. Most people trip through life asking bad questions - of teachers, friends, coworkers, clients, prospects, experts, and suspects. Even people trained in questioning, such as journalists and lawyers, commonly ask questions that get partial or misleading answers.
People in any profession will immediately benefit by developing the skill and art of good questioning. Find Out Anything From Anyone, Anytime will give you the power to:
- 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, 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.

Story
Getting someone to tell the truth is an essential skill that very few people possess. In the boardroom, the classroom, or our own homes, every day we interact with others and try to get the truth from them. People are often untruthful out of fear of negative consequences associated with divulging information. But if a person is made to forget the long-term outcomes, he or she can be influenced to disclose sensitive information that's being withheld.

Story
To get the truth from someone, you need two sets of skills. The first is the interpersonal skills necessary to get the facts. But the second group of skills is equally if not more important: they enable you to assess whether the facts actually fit together--whether they are true--and identify the emotions that shaped them. In Nothing but the Truth, top intelligence experts from the worlds of espionage, business, and law enforcement reveal how they get the information they need and give you the key tools to get the information you need.

Good book, narrator was too fast
This was a good basic book about how to ask effective questions. I found the content to be very insightful and it gave me some things to think about.
My only complaint is the narrator. He was very clear and easy to understand, but he just moved way to fast. This left little to no time to really consider the words after a point was made, as he'd just roll right into the next section.
I may listen again, because the content is good, but I'd try playing on slower speed.

I Will Listen to it Again
Fascinating book. The reading speed was too fast, for some reason, so I had to slow it down. Very interesting observations on what makes for “good questioning” and gives many practical examples.
I am already viewing my conversations differently. I plan to go through this book again and take more detailed notes.

Interestingly Informative
this audiobook will have you stop and think about what you say, when you say it and how you say it. It seems like common sense on one hand, yet on the other hand there's a lot of things you just don't think about in the moment. this will definitely have you stop and truly thinking about what is said.
