"After being hired in my current job, I set a personal goal to be promoted to a supervisory position within 2 years. I knew it would be challenging, but I dedicated my free time to learning more about the business, taking on challenging projects, and mentoring other leaders in the company. I was able to build my supervisory skills and knowledge, and right around the 2-year mark I was promoted to a supervisor."

The interviewer wants to know that you can set a goal and achieve it! As a board chairman, this is the essence of what you will do for the organization. Tell the interviewer about a significant goal you set and what you did to achieve it. This can be career-related or personal but make sure your example highlights your hard work, perseverance, sacrifice, and dedication!

"One of the biggest personal goals I achieved was earning my Master's degree. I wanted to dive deeper into my area of expertise and set a goal of earning my graduate degree to gain specialized knowledge and advance in my career field. I attended classes while working a full-time job which made earning my degree feel even more special considering the hard work and sacrifices it took."
