Proper procedure for addressing a question in a meeting?

When you need to address a question in a meeting, signaling readiness to contribute by standing to speak is the most effective approach. Standing helps the group hear you clearly, shows respect for the speaker and the chair, and keeps the meeting orderly by making it obvious when you are addressing everyone. Sitting quietly suggests you won’t participate, shouting is disruptive, and writing it down, while sometimes useful, doesn’t engage the group in real-time. Standing and speaking is the appropriate, respectful way to address a question.
