Description
While answers to questions today require a much lighter and less paternalistic (and chauvinistic) approach than those given in Nelson's time; his basic advice on how to build and present an effective Q&A program remains as sound today as when he first wrote this manuscript. Contents include: The Lecture; the Three Phases of Mindreading; Types and Kinds of Questions; Selection of Questions; The Psychology of Answers; How to Answer Questions Effectively; The Projection of Answers; How to Handle Difficult Questions; Answering via Radio, TV and Mail; Sensational Answers, Humorous Answers and Gags; Future Predictions; Summary; and Conclusion. Most importantly, Nelson explains how to give answers in a way that will truly engage your audience and hold their interest - avoiding the common pitfalls in technique that make answers lack appeal and fall flat.
