When planning, how often do you create alternative scenarios to help you adjust to changing situations?
Being able to problem solve and think outside the box when it comes to changing situations is a valuable skill set. Talk to the interviewer about your ability to create a variety of potential scenarios.
"I feel that it is a vital approach to create alternative scenarios in all situations. One cannot guess what will happen in the end, so it is great to be prepared for all possible outcomes."
"I try always to create 'what-ifs' because I know that plans change and fail. Plan B is always ready to go."

It's great to hear that you create contingency planning to help you adjust to changing situations, as those seem to pop up in every workplace! To make your response stronger, I suggest including a specific example of a time when you created a backup plan and how having that plan helped the outcome of your work. Providing a specific example here will make your answer stronger and more impactful.
