Questions that aim to find out what 'models' of behavior the interviewee has experienced in the past (a mental model). Such as; How did your former supervisor handle discipline of employees? (discipline model); Describe how your favorite teacher interacts with the students? (interaction/leadership model); [if the interviewee has previous scouting/church/organized rec experiences] How did your _________ leader handle conflict within the group [conflict management].
Something along these lines of questions will get the interviewee to describe what they have seen/been a part of in the past and how they feel about the particular situation. I found that counselors often mirror "models" that they have been involved with in the past.
