I like a manager who knows the ability of their staff, and who does not try to micro-manage them, but also knows when they need help.
Rachelle's Feedback
Knowing the ability of their staff is a unique answer - this is fantastic! If you do mention micromanagement, be prepared for follow up questions from the interviewer such as 'What does micromanagement mean to you?'
