Your leadership skills will be the most effective when you have a great relationship with the individuals you lead. Show the interviewer that you recognize a great relationship starts with clear communication, trust, and honesty. Tell the interviewer that you spend time genuinely getting to know your team.
For instance, perhaps you like to understand what activities they have going on inside and outside of work, their kids' names, or if they have any pets. Building a relationship with your team will ensure that you can frequently and genuinely ask them how they are doing. The more comfortable they are, the better chance they will come to you for help in the workplace when they need it.

"My leadership skills are the most effective when my relationship with the employee isn't just a surface connection. I want to have true knowledge of their life and a good understanding of their career goals. When my employees feel confident that I can help them achieve their goals, they are likelier to be an engaged part of the team."

"My leadership skills are most effective when I'm empowered to make autonomous decisions based upon the needs of the organization and our collective cultural objectives. In the past, my leadership has grown mostly in an environment based on mutual respect and inclusiveness, both in thought and practice. I lead my team by example and through thought leadership and well-honed best practices."
