Free sample questions

1. A colleague consistently interrupts you in meetings. What is the most effective first step?

  1. Interrupt them back to make the point
  2. Speak to them privately, explain the impact, and ask to be let finish ✓
  3. Complain to your manager about their behaviour
  4. Stop contributing in meetings to avoid the friction

Solution. The most effective response addresses the issue directly, privately, and professionally, focused on impact. Retaliating escalates it, going to the manager first skips a reasonable direct step, and withdrawing avoids the problem rather than solving it.

2. Your team is split over two approaches and the discussion is going in circles. You're not the leader. What helps most?

  1. Push hard for the option you prefer
  2. Suggest agreeing on shared criteria and evaluating both against them ✓
  3. Stay quiet and let others decide
  4. Propose everyone just does it their own way

Solution. Refocusing on shared decision criteria moves a stalled debate toward an objective resolution. Pushing your preference adds heat, silence wastes your input, and splitting approaches risks an incoherent result.
