What personality type do you find most difficult to work effectively with?

"I am most often challenged by staff who are poor communicators. As a Pediatrics Resident, I found that communication lines should always be open between residents, faculty, and the care team. If someone on my team doesn't communicate properly, I don't hesitate to respectfully approach them to explain what I need from them. If the problem persists, I take it up the proper chain of command. I would use this same approach in your PICU Fellowship program."

Pick a quality that doesn't reflect poorly on you. Talking about demanding personalities may make you seem lazy or unable to work with demanding faculty in the program. Instead, choose a quality that impairs even the most competent and hard-working doctors from delivering high-quality care or working as part of a high functioning team.
