Human Resources / coaching

Danish term or phrase: spørge ind til

Coachen kan registrere og spørge ind til "bevægelserne" i dialogen.

"Ask about" doesn't sound quite right, any other suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks.

Thanks Tomasz.

direct the line of questioning

Explanation:
direct the line of questioning

The topic under discussion may be complicated, or call for tact and understanding on the part of the coach.

'Spørge ind til' implies go gently, but get to the point, perhaps helping the person being coached to find words for a tricky situation and how to deal with it.

20 hrs confidence:

enquire about

Explanation:
'To inquire' is used meaning ‘make a formal investigation’, whereas 'to enquire' is used as a general sense of 'ask', which seems more apropiate in this case.
