"In your position."

Also, if you really want to bomb the interview, "How strict is your sexual harassment policy?"

“In your position.”

Honestly, thats a good answer. For people that report to me, I want them to eventually get my job. I don't want to do my same job forever. That means they can advance and I can move up too.

It's not a very original answer, though. It's the interview equivalent of asking "Does that mean it's free?" when a cashier has trouble scanning a barcode.

I'd at least want an interviewee to try to be original without defaulting to the "clever" answer they saw recommended online.
