Example output

Role: Product Manager (senior). Competency: stakeholder management. STAR reminder: ask for Situation, Task, Action, Result. 1. Tell me about a time you had to align engineering and sales on conflicting priorities. Good looks like: names the actual tension, shows a process, owns the outcome. Probe: What did the side that "lost" say afterward? 2. Describe a decision you pushed through despite a senior stakeholder disagreeing. Good looks like: persuasion with data + empathy, not authority or avoidance. Probe: How did you keep that relationship intact? 3. Tell me about a time a stakeholder blindsided you late in a project. Good looks like: reflection on the early signal they missed, not blame. Probe: What do you do now to surface that earlier?
