Some great qualities of a leader are:
- Being someone who people naturally want to follow
- Exceptional interpersonal skills
- Strong relationship building skills
- Taking ownership for the team's errors and mistakes
- Excelling at motivating others
- Providing kudos to your team
- Knowing how to select and hire the right people to join the team
- Having a vision for the future

These are just a few to get started! Which qualities do you most identify with? We recommend picking about 5 qualities, and feel free to think beyond this list. Tell the interviewer your 5 things, and share your perspective on why you feel you have the quality. For example, you may state, "I feel that I am good at motivating a team. Last year, I motivated my sales team every day, and we ended up being the top sales team in the company for the year!"
