20. What is one of the most important qualities to have as a coach?
How to Answer
This question doesn't have a specific answer that the interview is looking for. The interviewer is looking to understand what type of culture you'll create as a coach for their team.
You can pick any quality that you think it most important to you- supportive, knowledgeable, patient, etc. As long as you support why you picked that quality there isn't really a wrong answer you can give.

1st Answer Example
"The most important quality to have as a coach is to be patient. Each player has a different learning style and some will learn faster or slower than one another, so I believe it is most important to have patience for each player."
