Someone messaged me saying that during his interview he was asked how he was a good leader. He proceeded by explaining how he lead his team during a game of WoW and after that he was hired! I found that hilarious :D You do raise a good point regarding being strategic in WoW. Someone messaged me saying that during his interview he was asked how he was a good leader.

Believe it or not, someone good at WOW is someone good in strategy. Coincidence or not, a big number of the good people had "Scouting" in common and scouting means a person who can take responsibility, who adapts to his environment, who can come up with a solution when problems arise etc...
