1) Tell me about a time you led a team through a tough challenge?
2) Tell me about a time when you worked in a team and had to manage a conflict?
Isn't the conflict part (#2) a subset of the challenge part (#1)? OR is #1 more focused on how you helped them understand what needs to be done or guided them through it to solve the issue - but there probably was no conflict anywhere (which seems unlikely)
Q1) Wondering when you talk about the challenge you talk about multiple challenges in a PEI story. One instance can have different kinds of challenges - do you talk about more than one?

Q2) When you have nuances in a story - say when you are asked 1) when you led a team through a challenging time vs 2) when you led a team, how you worked with them and what were the team dynamics. How do you adapt and answer?

Q1) Would recommend to keep focus - one challenge with a rich set of aspects is usually the best strategy.
Q2) Every answer to Q2 would also work for Q1, but not vice versa (since Q2 is a subset of Q1)
Hello Mr. Sidi, thank you very much. For Q1) I think I'm mixing the words instance, challenge and aspects. So one challenge with rich aspects. I had to organize and move a physical event to virtual platform which is the challenge. I cover two aspects then - 1) how I worked with my team to identify what aspects were key to reproduce and 2) after #1 when we were planning, there was a team conflict. Would these be two aspects or two challenges? They are good alone too but I thought in PEI you'd probably discuss both given its 15 mins - it will add richness perhaps?
