The Art of Asking Questions with John Sturrock KC
Past event: 6 November 2024
This event was a fascinating session, brought to you by EICC Live and the David Hume Institute, where we considered the art of asking questions.
John Sturrock KC, Founder & Senior Mediator of Core Solutions, shared insights on how to ask purposeful questions. John discussed valuable techniques to take your skills to the next level and achieve better outcomes in your professional and personal life.
John has spent much of his career exploring how to ask questions in all sorts of settings, firstly as an advocate in his former career at the Scottish Bar, then as a mediator, facilitator and negotiation adviser in the worlds of business, politics, policy and sport, as a trainer on questioning skills for members of each of the parliaments in the UK, and as a father, spouse and friend.
The ability to ask great questions can make a real difference to all we do, especially in difficult situations in our work and home lives.
Watch the event recording to hear John explore the art of asking purposeful questions and discuss with former BBC journalist Claire English, why this is so important.
