10 Things NOT to Say in a Leadership Interview (and what TO say instead): I know leadership interviews can be tough. I've sat on both sides of the table. One phrase can shift how you’re perceived. A small slip can cast doubt on your leadership skill. Don't fall into the trap of sending the wrong message. Here's what to avoid (also why) and what to say: 1. "I'm a perfectionist." ↳ Why: Screams micromanager ↳ Instead: "I help teams raise standards and grow." 2. "I don't delegate easily." ↳ Why: Sounds like you'll be a bottleneck ↳ Instead: "I build systems that empower others." 3. "I can make all the decisions." ↳ Why: Suggests you don't value team input ↳ Instead: "I create space for diverse perspectives." 4. "My last team struggled to keep up." ↳ Why: Never blame others - period ↳ Instead: "I learned valuable lessons about pacing." 5. "I don't really have weaknesses." ↳ Why: Shows lack of self-awareness ↳ Instead: "Here's what I'm improving on..." 6. "I don't need much direction." ↳ Why: Hints at communication gaps ↳ Instead: "I align closely with stakeholders." 7. "I know everything about leadership." ↳ Why: Closes the door to learning ↳ Instead: "I'm always evolving my approach." 8. "I've never had any conflicts." ↳ Why: You either avoid or lack awareness ↳ Instead: "I turn conflicts into growth chances." 9. "I'm a natural leader." ↳ Why: Dismisses the value of experience ↳ Instead: "I've grown through every challenge." 10. "I'm available 24/7." ↳ Why: Warning that you're a burnout risk ↳ Instead: "I ensure sustainable high performance." Leadership interviews are conversations. Show them who you are, not who you think they want you to be. ♻️ Repost to help others interview better. 🔔 Follow me (Nadeem) for more like this.
