In this episode of “Stop the Stack Attack,” we delve into the dangerous habit of asking multiple questions in one breath. We’ve all been on the receiving end of a stack question attack, but what many of us don’t realize is that we’re also guilty of doing it ourselves. This episode explores the reasons why we stack questions and the negative consequences that it can have on our conversations. From the fear of not getting all the information we need to a desire for control, we’ll uncover the underlying motivations behind this tactic. But that’s not all, we’ll also provide strategies for change, including techniques for asking one question at a time and giving the other person a chance to respond. Listen in to uncover the truth about stacked questions and discover ways to make our conversations more effective.
