Your interviewer would like to know how you would classify your style of leadership and whether you're familiar with the main leadership styles or classifications. In their employee code of conduct, they go into detail about the conduct they expect of their leaders. How you answer will inform them of whether your style aligns with, or would compliment, the leadership they foster and encourage.

"I would say that I am a transformational influencer. I lead by example, set the pace for our work, set a positive tone to motivate everyone to get the job done, and am communicative and an active listener, giving everyone a voice. I am diplomatic, and an active coach, always promoting the strengths of my teams and never exploiting their weaknesses."

Here are a few collected statements from Maersk's code of conduct, which is available for download in PDF format. "Lead by example in both words and action. Promote open and honest two-way communication with your team, encouraging them to raise questions and concerns and letting them know when an issue has been resolved. Handle concerns by listening, being respectful and by protecting confidentiality and preventing retaliation. Ensure that employees are aware of the various channels they can use to speak up."
