1)
who was your best hire, how did you help him perform and grow. who was your worst hire and how do you handle low performers, tell me about a time when there is conflict in decision making and how did you manage, tell me you worst mistake/blunder and what did you learn, tell me how do you make sure the deliverables are of the right quality what metrics will you track. Finally lets design a system like Netflix/Amazon Instant Video. first few questions took 30 mins and the netflix design question took about 25 mins. last 5 mins was me asking questions to him about amazon
2)
I prepared by trying to understand the 14 leadership principals and then prepared several experiences per principal. I don't think it was necessary to memorize memorize the list of principals, but you should be able to rattle off a few in context and be able to talk about any of them if asked. Questions are usually, "tell a time when..." performance management, hard problems, process improvement, etc. You can't really prep for the design question but it will be vague so ask questions.
