      Lauren's Feedback

      Great response; you are client-centered, which will be seen very positively by your interviewer. I helped reword your response to display your methodology.
      "Yes, I believe it is possible to be a good team player while disagreeing with the leader. Finding common ground can certainly help if there are areas of disagreement. If everyone can agree to be patient-centered and put our patients' needs first, everything else can be worked out amicably."
