The type of question that creates an effective discussion is open-ended. Open-ended questions allow for a broader range of responses and encourage participants to elaborate and provide detailed explanations. Close-ended questions can limit the discussion by allowing only specific answer options. Clarification questions are used to obtain further details and are generally effective for focusing a discussion. Vague questions may lead to unclear or incomplete responses, and they may not generate a productive discussion. Meetings that are organized with a clear agenda and purpose tend to result in more effective and focused discussions.
