Don't get caught up in this answer by answering negatively. Avoid being negative about past co-workers or supervisors. Tell the interviewer about a dislike, how you identified it and how you changed it. Don't worry if you weren't able to fix the situation, by sharing your role in the story will show the interviewer that you are looking to improve areas of the job.
