We have a team AMA coming up with a director. Apart from the typical "what are plans/goals for the team" type questions, what else could be useful or insightful questions?

When asking for plans: ask for 1 year, 2 year, and 5 year product and technology North stars. Should be pretty vague for the 5 year but at least should have some direction figured out.

Depending on the org the tech side might best be answered by the principle engineers not directors.
