Your interviewer is curious whether you have leadership potential. How you answer will potentially inform them of your leadership style. If you don't have formal leadership experience, share an occasion where you took charge, set the pace, or led by example. As Home Depot's CEO, Ted Decker, once said, "The only thing I can control is how hard I work.

"Our company had a sales contest last month, and I was asked to be our team leader for the challenge. I enjoyed that responsibility, and we ended up winning the reward in the end because my team increased sales by the highest percentage. I believe the biggest factor in our success was the enthusiasm I brought to the team. Everyone was engaged, and wanted to win."
