If the group collapsed or is going to collapse, explain what was the reason of its collapse.
I hope not, however if it does mainly everyone retired
If the group is still functioning but is stalling, explain what was the cause of this
Lack of staffs, always a hard time finding TL help
If the group is functioning very well, do tell about why it is successful and what did you do to make it successful.
At one time it did, I learned the best thing I could do is my job
