What is your leadership style?
The interviewer is asking this question to see if you have served in a leadership role or if you are up for the challenge. Tell the interviewer if you've had the opportunity to lead others and what the outcome was.
"I'd like to think of my leadership style as innovative. I believe that failures don't impede progress, the team gains job satisfaction and enjoyment and it creates an atmosphere of respect for others' ideas."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

My leadership style is flexible & adaptive that best suits the nature of the project & not to impede it. From my experience, I feel that there is not a single "one size fits all style" that works in all situations. Leaders must adapt to a style that is necessary to lead the team toward achieving the goals of the project.

That's great but make sure to build out your answer further. Talk about what transformative leadership means to you and how you carry it out. Discuss why you have chosen this leadership style over other ones.
