Team organizational models
I would appreciate specific referrals for particular teams with various team models among the full range of educational levels: JFLL, FLL, VEX, FTC, FRC.

What teams are primarily run by ... ?
* non-technical parent mentors
* technical parent mentors
* non-technical non-parent mentors
* technical non-parent mentors
* non-technical faculty advisor(s)
* technical faculty advisors(s)

I fully agree with the mentor-student dynamic, but would like to explore the pros, cons and best practices for models in addition to the single faculty advisor model. Also, I would appreciate team leader recruiting, retention and transition ideas.
