    These are really great questions! I think all of these questions will cause your person to really think, so hopefully you will learn a lot from them. One common thing that I noticed will all of the people that you are considering interviewing is that they all seem like they want to help others, which is of course a very important aspect of a leader. Great job!

  2. Emily, I think the questions you have chosen are a well rounded group of questions that make your leader think of their beginning time as a leader, where they are now, and where they want to be later on in life. These question like Abby said will make your leader think. They will have to look at how they have affected people and how the process of being a leader has affected them.
