Describe your ideal manager.

The interviewer is trying to better understand your preferred style of management, and in some cases, the person interviewing you could be your potential manager, so this will help them understand if you would align well with them. Be sure you research the NHS culture, and if possible, try to do some research on the background and education of the person you're interviewing with.

Consider past employers and the best leader you had. Think about what traits or habits they demonstrated that made them someone you enjoyed working with. In your response, explain some of the qualities you're looking for in a leader but also demonstrate that you're flexible and work under different types of management styles.
