Hello Everyone!
I am currently in the final rounds for the PDP role with Mckinsey.
While preparing for the Leadership PEI: I have two stories:
1. Back in 2019-2020, I lead a soccer team in a national competition with diverse set of people (education level, social status, and many more) after a setback in the first game and then I turn around the entire tournament by setting small achievable targets for the team; keeping the morale up and eventually reflecting the confidence in my performance. The team ended up winning the second place and It led me to sign professional contract with a club.
The only issue that I have with this example is that it's more than 5 years old. What are your thoughts on this?
2. The second story is from 2025, where i led a team of different backgrounds, all new people with different backgrounds in School, People ranging from Undergrads to MBAs and I was able to delegate tasks and change strategies and eventually winning the google case competition.
Which story should I go with? Can i present my interviewer with both the options and let him decide what he wants to hear?
Thank you!
