"I would say I am a transformational leader. I take the time to understand the unique strengths and weaknesses of each member of our team, capitalize on their strengths, and never exploit their weaknesses. It's important to identify how an employee's weakness can be utilized as a strength in its own right and then developed."

"I would say that I am an influencer who is democratic in my approach to developing and transforming those I am working with. You want to identify the strong suits of each employee, place them where they will have the greatest sense of accomplishment, and help shift their perspective on their weaknesses. Take the time to show you care and are interested in helping them improve and grow as professionals."

Whether you have leadership experience or not, spend some time before your interview determining how you would define your leadership style and which of the five main leadership styles best define you. Reflect on the occasions where you have supported your team and led by example, especially where you have conducted yourself with integrity.

Here are some excerpts from an article on Wells Fargo's website about identifying your style of leadership. "In the same way skill sets aren't mutually exclusive, being an effective leader isn't about having one "right" leadership style. Good leaders often adapt their approach based on the situation at hand and the team they're working with. To figure out whether you need to adapt your leadership style, start by identifying your strengths and weaknesses. Then, create a list of leadership tactics that work best with your team and business model. Note where your strengths and weaknesses intersect with effective leadership tactics. After you've noted which of your skills tend to be the most effective, research different leadership styles to see if you naturally identify with any of them. This can help you develop your skills and identify similar leaders to look to as examples. Take time to identify how and when you are most effective, then cultivate your own leadership style based on those traits."

To exude the qualities of a confident leader for your HireVue interview, research the body language of a confident and relaxed person in a seated position. Pump yourself up with physical exercise to manifest confidence. Go into a private space with a mirror, look yourself in the eye, and give yourself a pep talk. Raise your arms, stretch your back, and make yourself as big as possible. Then practice your answers in front of the camera and record your voice to cast away any insecurity, nervousness, or self-doubt. Share what you have to offer and why you believe in what you have to say.
