Make a written or mental inventory of your sources of inspiration before the interview, especially if you have several inspirations. Example: "My first boss at my first product design job still has an impact on how I lead a team today.

She only offered constructive feedback and made the office a pleasant and secure environment to exchange the latest ideas. I aim to emulate her supervisory techniques."
