The interviewer wants to hear about a positive experience you have had with leadership. Think about a time you led a sports team, led a college project, managed a store, or coached a little league team. These are all great examples!
Talk about your desire to be a leader with Costco in the future. Share with the interviewer that you strive to be a role model for others. Explain that you jump at the opportunity to lead groups, encourage your counterparts, and be the face of the organization when challenges arise.

"In my current position, I am the president of the social committee. I love having the opportunity to encourage employee engagement and be a positive influence on the workplace culture. I am a natural leader because I start by leading by example. As a leader, I make myself available to others who need a mentor-ship, a bit of assistance in adjusting to their role, or just a listening ear when they've had a tough day. I am confident in my leadership abilities and look forward to joining your team and working my way up into a leadership role."
