Duly Noted : ACTION !!!

"Nothing happens in this world until YOU take action. All power is from within and therefore under our control. You must step up and take action for anything in order to change"

- T Shea Ellison

"What we think or what we know or what we believe is, in the end of little consequence. The only consequence is WHAT WE DO".

- John Ruskin

How to answer a question?

I've been asked a question,
and I don't know the answer.
How can I avoid looking dumb?

BUY TIME. Restate the question. That gives you that extra moment to pull your thoughts together and come up with an answer.

ASK A QUESTION ABOUT THE SENSE OF THE QUESTION. Ask your questioner to rephrase.

DON'T ANSWER A QUESTION YOU CAN'T ANSWER WELL. An ill-conceived answer is worse than no answer.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW, ADMIT IT. Then set a time and date by which you will have the answer.

DELEGATE THE QUESTION. If someone is present who you think will have the information, pass the question to him.

SUGGEST ANOTHER PERSON OR RESOURCE THAT MIGHT HAVE THE ANSWER.
