Personal question · Collaboration, Communication
A style that grated
Too controlling, too vague, too blunt, too distant: sooner or later a crew, ensemble or squad you belong to is run by someone whose manner grates on you, and the work still has to get done. Think about a time that happened.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time you had to keep working well in a group led by someone whose style made it hard for you. How did you handle your disagreements with them?
- 2Describe a moment in that experience that you would handle differently now, and explain why.
What raters look for
- Collaboration
- Works toward a shared goal, shares credit and load, and repairs friction inside a team.
- Communication
- Listens first, speaks clearly and respectfully, and adapts the message to the listener.
