Our Corporate Trainer often meets with managers and supervisors to discuss upcoming training topics and approaches. Have you ever had difficulty communicating with a supervisor?

Possessing the skills to enhance communication in the workplace is a valuable asset, especially as a Corporate Trainer. When approaching this question, remember that the interviewer does not want to hear that you agree with everybody at all times. In a perfect world, you communicate well and get along with the leaders that you support at all times. However, this is not always realistic. A response like that fails to give the interviewer insight into your behaviors and communication style in the workplace. What matters most is not that you have a perfect record with your leaders, but how you approach a situation in which you disagree with a leader. Demonstrate to your interviewer that you can collaborate well with your leaders, especially when choosing training approaches and deciding on upcoming training session topics. If you've ever experienced a time when it was difficult to communicate with a supervisor, tell a brief story that highlights your actions and the result of your communication approach.
