Imagine that your team is facing a serious crisis. What is your first thought? Who has what abilities and how can we utilize them?
What do I need to understand as soon as possible in order to be able to act?
What unexpected opportunities could arise from that?
How can a problem be divided into smaller parts and addressed gradually?
Is there someone who has dealt with a similar situation and we can be inspired by them?

You will receive a task that you have no experience with. How do you decide to proceed? I will start experimenting and learning on the go.
First, I will research all available information and prepare a strategy.
I will involve someone who has experience in the solution, and I will learn from them.
I will focus on the essence of the task and leave out everything that is not essential.
I will create several solution variants and test their effectiveness.

The customer rejects your proposal, into which you put a lot of effort. How do you respond? I will find out exactly what they don't like about the proposal and adjust it accordingly.
I will try to defend my solution from a different perspective.
I will ask about specific needs and create an entirely new concept.
I take it as an opportunity to reflect on innovation.
I am looking for a compromise between their demands and my solution.

During the project, you will realize that there is a more efficient way to solve it. What will you do? I will immediately introduce a new approach, even if it means a change in the course of the project.
First, I will verify if it is indeed more effective and what consequences it will have.
I will discuss it with the team and let them decide.
I will complete the project according to the original plan and use the new approach next time.
I will create a small test model to compare both approaches.

How do you approach solving a problem that does not have a clearly defined solution? First, I will focus on understanding the essence of the problem.
I will break the problem down into smaller parts and solve them independently.
I am looking for inspiration in completely different areas.
I will involve people with different perspectives in the discussion.
I will use the trial-and-error method and see what works best.

What motivates you the most to innovate? The feeling that I have found a solution that no one has tried yet.
A challenge to solve something that others consider impossible.
Feedback from people whom my idea helped.
The opportunity to work with people who also think innovatively.
The desire to streamline processes and save time or costs.

You find yourself in a dead end while solving a problem. What will you do? I will take a step back from it and return later with a new perspective.
I am asking for feedback from someone with a different way of thinking.
I am looking for unconventional solutions in completely different areas.
I will use brainstorming or mind maps to generate ideas.
I will turn to the data and facts that could suggest a solution.

How do you approach solving unexpected complications during a project? I will immediately reassess the strategy and look for a solution.
I prioritize problems and address them according to their severity.
I am looking for a way to turn complications into an advantage.
I will involve the team in searching for creative alternatives.
I will take time for analysis and only then I will take action.

What do you think about the idea that "every problem contains a solution within itself"? I agree, it's just a matter of perspective.
I believe that some problems are truly unsolvable.
First, I try to understand what the real problem is, and then I look for a solution.
I believe that sometimes the solution is to decide not to solve the problem.
Every problem is also an opportunity for growth.

If you had the opportunity to create anything without limitations, what would you do? Something that would help address major social issues.
A tool that would make everyday life easier.
A project that would connect people with different skills and ideas.
A technology that would streamline processes in my field.
Something completely unexpected that no one would anticipate, but it should have a significant impact.
