This question assesses your leadership style and whether you delegate, or if you work side by side with your team when you can afford to. As a leader, your actions, decisions, and demeanor are always under some form of scrutiny. Those who lead by 'Do as I say, not as I do' can contribute to a toxic work environment. This can lead to extra work for human resources and decreased productivity. It's one thing if you can talk the talk. But the interviewer wants to know if you walk the walk.

"I work hard and I work fast. I have high-level attention to detail and believe in doing the job the right way the first time is easier than trying to dodge work or doing a half job. As a result, I am normally setting the pace. I am also a happy-go-lucky person with a friendly attitude, and that rubs off on those around me."

For me, leading by example is the most effective way, especially when managing a team of entry-level professionals who are seeking mentorship in one way or another. In my job, I try to set an example by the quality of work and designs I prepare before asking for the same. Also, I encourage my team to refrain from engaging in gossiping by refusing to participate and highlighting the long-term effect of this behavior.
