Poor leadership is something, unfortunately, that educators and students experience alike. An interviewer not only wants to hear about how you experienced poor leadership, but more importantly, how you handled the situation. This way, an interviewer can see your true colors in this type of situation.

"A few years back, there was a vice principal that did not lead the faculty very well. He always seemed to be unprepared and struggled to communicate positively with the staff. In turn, I worked to help the vice principal, by asking what I could do to help her on a week-to-week basis. This was well-received and our relationship improved."
