The interviewer is interested in knowing how well you'll get along with those in positions of authority and whether they can meet your expectations for the type of manager or employer that brings out the best in you. How you answer could also offer a glimpse into their personality, philosophy, and approach to life and work. It might also help them pair you with the type of leader who best matches your inspiration based on your ideals and better serves as a role model for you through your onboarding experience. Think of those who inspired you. Inspirational people motivate us to keep going when we feel like giving up. If you are unsure of the management style of the interviewing company, try to leave your answer as open as possible.
