If a student asks a question about a particular situation that you don't have experience with, simply acknowledge the question and suggest that it's a great topic to talk about. Ask others how they might have handled the situtation.

Facilitate instead of teaching.

Make sense?
Yes, thanks!

And I would add - BELIEVE, you have the ability to lead a group of high level managers/leaders. Because, if you don't it comes through - and if you DO, it comes through.
I like this! Very useful thought!

Sure, that works for me. While the students may be high-level management, they are still in the learning mode in a classroom setting. So they are still students.
