There are 3 kinds of questions people ask when you present:

  1. The one that’s asked.
  2. The one you hear. And 3. the one you will answer.

How do you make sure you answer it right?

Take exactly 2 seconds the next time you’re asked a question and do a quick check-in:

🔥 𝗗𝗼 𝗜 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻? (If not, clarify)

🔥 𝗗𝗼 𝗜 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘁? (If not, use my tips on how to answer questions you don’t know the answer to – linked in comments)

🔥 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀/𝗺𝗲/𝗺𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲? If not – you actually DON’T need to answer it!

The truth is, you don’t need to answer every question being asked after a presentation.

And no, I don’t mean you should stay silent or refuse to answer the question.

I mean you can learn the art of answering a question with your own key messages.

This way, you’re not letting the question-asker dictate what you want to say.

👉 Do you answer every question you get asked after your presentation? Or do you have a strategy? I’d love to know.

PS – I share my framework on how to answer tricky questions in my newsletter going out TODAY! (the kind where you say no to question 3 in my checklist^^) Join me there. Link below.
