20. 質問は、どんどん聞いて〜! (Thank you for your question!)
ガイバナ

相手から、説明を受けている時、質問をしていいのか、いけないのか、ちょっと躊躇する場面、ありますよね。そのような時は、理解を深めるためにも、ぜひ質問をしてもらいたいです!そして、もし質問を受けたなら、相手に”Thank you for your question!”、と言って褒めて下さい。そうすると、より聞きやすい雰囲気が生まれます!! Thank you for 〜 の後は、your commentとか、your smileとか、色々思った感謝を伝えたら、尚良いです。ぜひ、積極的に発言が生まれる環境作りに、このきらりフレーズを!
