Can you share a time when you successfully convinced a team member who was initially resistant to change to fully embrace and support a new project or initiative, and what strategies did you use to achieve this outcome?
A: Yes, I once had a team member who was resistant to implementing a new software system in our department. To convince them, I first listened to their concerns and addressed them one by one. I then provided them with training and support to help them feel more comfortable with the change. Additionally, I highlighted the benefits of the new system and how it would improve efficiency and productivity for our team. Eventually, they saw the value in the project and became one of its biggest supporters.
