The questions you ask and the way you frame them can determine the quality of the information you gather and the rapport you establish during critical conversations. For accountants and financial professionals, these skills are essential for uncovering fraud, mitigating risks, and making sound decisions. Research shows that with practice, people can boost their deception detection ability by 25 to 50 percent.
This focused course provides advanced techniques for crafting strategic questions and eliciting truthful information in high-stakes scenarios. Participants will learn how to analyze narrative statements, identify inconsistencies, and uncover the motivations behind deceptive behavior. The program includes interactive exercises, case studies, and practical applications to refine skills in observation, question formulation, and managing challenging interactions.
