At Centene Corporation, there is no room for compromise regarding ethics and integrity. Because of this, transparency in every decision is vital, and your interviewer needs to know that you would have the ability to lead while being transparent.

"I try to be a vulnerable leader at work. Openly discussing mistakes and errors teaches the team that it is ok to fail, but hopefully, we fail fast and then move on to solutions that work. In my experience, transparency leads to innovation."

"Your members at Centene Corporation deserve transparency in all decisions and communications so that they are fully aware of the reasons behind your decisions. I plan to bring full transparency to this role if hired. It all comes down to respect and honesty, and I always try to put myself in the shoes of the person I'm communicating with. A few months ago, I worked with a customer we could not find a solution for. While it would have been easy to beat around the bush and try to push another service that wouldn't have worked in the end, I didn't do that and was very honest that we couldn't help them. They were very appreciative of my honest response."

An ideal answer to this question will highlight a role in your past where honesty, integrity, and transparency were important. You should explain why full transparency with customers or clients was important and how you approached difficult conversations transparently.
