Problem: Discuss factors that motivate you. Recall a situation in the past where you participated in either a group endeavor or an individual project that you spent a lot of time on and had a very positive outcome. An example could be a school or a community project in which you were proud of the results when you finished. Discuss what or who inspired and motivated you. Were you motivated by the leader, the subject, or both?
The outcome of what you share will give you insight into what inspires and motivates other people. It will give you a sense of what challenging and meaningful work means. Additionally, it may give you insights into successful leadership styles.
