To reach the outcome you seek

In this webcast Frank Sesno, former CNN anchor, White House correspondent and Washington bureau chief; reveals a new way to think about how you can use questions to be more productive, creative and effective at most everything you do.

Author of Ask More: The Power of Questions to Open Doors, Uncover Solutions, and Spark Change Frank draws on his decades of experience as an interviewer on CNN, NPR and in front of live audiences to explain how different types of questions work, lead to distinct outcomes and employ different listening skills.
