Material handling projects often have team members from several disciplines and companies; including mechanical, civil, or software engineering, drafting technicians, field representatives, and the customer. Adapt your answer to fit your long term career goals. If you see yourself as a budding technical expert, show how you learn and share your discipline. If you see yourself as a project manager one day, show how you seek interdisciplinary coordination.

"I know that leadership is more than just delegating tasks. One day, I see myself in the position of project manager. Right now as a design engineer, I believe I can show my leadership style by getting to know as many people and disciplines working on the project as I can. That way, even if my technical abilities are in the mechanical engineering discipline, I can still talk to the software engineers and understand how their work interfaces with the conveyor assembly I've set up. As a project manager, this would help me keep track of the whole project while allowing my team to work within their personal areas of expertise."
