This reinforces for me the importance of domain knowledge in engineering leadership. i.e. if you work for a finance company you need to have a decent understanding of finance in order to make the correct technical decisions and tradeoffs, same goes for journalism, same goes for commerce etc. etc. Successful organisations I've worked for have always included domain specific, non-technical, questions to tech team interviews whilst some of the most technically acomplished teams I've worked with have floundered through a lack of domain insight.
