The interviewer would like to know that you have the confidence to lead a meeting successfully. Think about a time when you have driven a meeting - big or small. This example could be a phone meeting, a lunch and learn, or a large client presentation.
Begin by telling the interviewer the reason for the meeting, who was involved, and what approach you took to prepare for the meeting. Finally, be sure to mention why you felt the meeting was a success! What did you do in that meeting to create an effective and positive outcome?

"My employer asked me to lead a lunch and learn meeting to train 15 employees on our new client management software. I was already a subject matter expert on the software so it wasn't difficult for me to plan the lesson. The challenge was making the content entertaining enough to keep the employees engaged. I created a strong PowerPoint presentation that included pop quiz questions throughout. The presentation was a success, and my employer asked me to lead a follow up meeting a few weeks later."

"Just last week my boss had a personal emergency and could not make it in time for our monthly staff meeting. Everyone was already gathered, and so he called to ask me to take control of the meeting. I feel that I did a great job relaying the information and my boss was thankful for the way that I was able to step in."

As the lead researcher on a project, I am in charge of leading meetings between my department and our clients every few months. I create thorough PowerPoint presentations, showcase what has been worked on, and ensure that any comments are made to help improve on the research.
Rachelle's Feedback
This question requires a more targeted response as it's a situational question. Rather than providing general statements, try giving a specific time, and outcome.
"I recently led research on a project between my department and a client. For our final meeting, I created a thorough PowerPoint presentation that showcased the work that we had done. The meeting was a positive one, with many comments on our research. The client was happy, and my team felt very accomplished."
