With this question, the interviewer is assessing your ability to lead and influence. As with any other issue that arises in a project, you are expected to conduct a root-cause analysis. First, an effective answer will demonstrate that you are open to feedback from the team. Second, it will show the interviewer that you can analyze the feedback and get to the root of the issue. Lastly, you will want to emphasize that you can be responsible for motivating your team by providing specific examples of actions that will boost their morale.

"I'll immediately gather everyone for a team meeting. In this meeting, I'll give everyone the time and space to air out their challenges and concerns. I'll listen and empathize with them and assure them that I will do everything I can to get them what they need to complete their tasks. I'll also ask them for feedback about my performance as a leader and act on that feedback. As tasks are completed, I'll post shoutouts in the group chat to boost their morale. I'll also hold individual catch-ups regularly, even if it's just for 15 minutes at a time, so that we can put out small fires before they catch on."
