Today I read this question that Michael Lewis asked to the president. (The 9-page article he wrote from the whole interview can be found here.) I thought the question, not necessarily the article, was a good one. That question is one I'll recycle. It's a good one to ask not only to a politician but to the CEO of a company, the executive director of an organization or any other pubic figure.
"Assume that in 30 minutes you will stop being president [or leader]. I will take your place. Prepare me. Teach me how to be president [or be the leader]."
