Croydon youngsters to quiz a host of top bosses

3:00pm Saturday 26th January 2013 in Local news

Youngsters are being invited to learn about how to ask a good question.

They will be quizzing four chief executives, including Croydon Council chief executive Jon Rouse, about how they achieved their success.

Councillor Tim Pollard, cabinet member for children, families and learning, said: “Being able to ask good questions can be a key to helping people learn and it's also a good way to promote change.

“It’s a real skill to understand how questions can be used to get genuinely useful answers, or even to make things happen.”

The event takes place on Wednesday 6 February from 5pm to 7.30pm at the Fairfield Halls.

People can sign up individually or as a group from a school or youth organisation.

Bookings can be made through contacting Antonia.Dixey@croydon.gov.uk.
