Sample Answer 1

A few years ago, I remember my boss asked me to do a presentation to our board of directors. I worked on the material and asked my boss to let me run through the whole thing before the meeting. The day before I was to do that, my boss got tied up, so I never got her input on my research nod data. I was embraced at the meeting when my figures and marketing data were heavily questioned. I got intimidated and nervous and stumbled though the queasiness. I make a poor choice in not getting other's input when my boss was unable to asset me. She did apologize to me later and took some responsibility for not making time to help me before the meeting. I learned a valuable lesson about team work that day, one that has helped me become a better supervisor.
