Dealing with QuestionsDealing with QuestionsTreat your audience with the respect you would like to

have shown to you. Answer their questions directly and honestly. If you do not know an answer then say so and offer to find out and ensure that you do so. Questions can be neutral, friendly or hostile. Never be rude to the questioner or show you are upset.  Do not compromise yourself but maintain your point of view and never lose your temper.
