In my previous role, I encountered a situation where a team member consistently missed deadlines, affecting our project timelines. Instead of confronting them directly, I scheduled a one-on-one meeting to discuss their workload and any challenges they were facing. By actively listening and offering support, we identified the root cause and worked together to establish a more manageable schedule.

During a project last year, our team faced a sudden change in project scope and deadlines due to unforeseen client requirements. To adapt, I organized an emergency meeting to discuss the implications and brainstorm solutions. By remaining flexible and proactive, we successfully revised our strategy, reallocated resources, and met the new project objectives within the revised timeline.
