Manufacturing work will require communication with employees and managers of other departments. The interviewer wants to know that you are respectful of your leaders, and while you do not always have to agree with your leader, that you communicate respectfully. Think about a time when you might have received constructive feedback that made your work better or easier. Reassure the hiring manager that you are open to instructions when they are communicated to you.

"I believe that it's my job as a professional to adapt to all types of people, and respect leadership even when I disagree with decisions they make. My previous employer was a micro-manager, so I am used to being supervised by someone constantly looking over my shoulder. As I worked, I saw that his constant communication allowed me to understand exactly how to produce what he wanted on every project. That way there was no misunderstanding."
