Demonstrating a problem and restating a problem will usually bring an understanding of the issue.
Key Takeaway: While these options may take a little longer, you are allowing the person to explain and demonstrate the problems. A person's perspective (including your own) needs to be addressed before assumptions are made, as asking questions based on your assumptions may not lead to the real issues.
