- Leading and Developing Others: How do you ensure that your team members are excited about their work, your team, the company? How do you manage difficult people? What do you do about conflicts between team members? How do you lead people who were your peers yesterday?

- Team Structure: How many people can you effectively manage? How do you determine roles for team members? How do you manage dispersed, multi-cultural teams? What is technology's impact on organizational structure and business processes?

- Prioritizing: How do you balance team management, planning for the future, and day-to-day decision making? How do you keep your team focused without micromanaging?

- Hiring and Firing: How do you find good people and assess if they are a fit for your team? How do you take action when you have a poor fit-quickly, professionally, and without threat of lawsuit?

- Communicating Effectively: How do you harness the power of communication?
