Open and Closed Questions

Simply put an open question people can answer with anything, a big long sentence, yes no three bags full, anything.
A closed question is constructed to limit the response to yes or no, simple clean answers.
Using just closed question means you will gain little information and using just open question the conversation will be unstructured, leading to little direction.
As with all things a balance is needed.
