	Tell me about your career path, jobs prior to this one, etc.
	What is the overriding mission of your business?
	Who are the most influential people in your life?
	Which business men and women do you admire most? Why do you admire them?
	What are some of the most important lessons that you're trying to teach your coworkers?
	Tell us about your customers.
	What about your customers? Discuss your relationship with them.
	Tell us about your family.
	What traits do you look for in an employee?
	Talk about your educational background: where you went to school, what you majored in, favorite courses, etc.
	Name some people whom you admire (either from history or from current events).
