Most conversations stop at the first answer – but the real truth usually lives in the second.
In this episode of Advanced Communication Skills They Never Teach You, you’ll learn the simple follow-up question that uncovers hidden objections, real priorities, and what people rarely say out loud the first time.
In Episode 6, we covered the opening question: 👉 “What’s your perspective on this?”
In Episode 7, you’ll learn the follow-up that unlocks deeper honesty: 👉 “What else matters?”
This technique works in:
✔️ Sales and negotiation
✔️ Leadership and management
✔️ Relationships and difficult conversations
✔️ Coaching and influence
✔️ Conflict resolution
