Your question is Influencing a Disagreeing Decision-Maker. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Describe a situation where you had to influence a decision-maker who disagreed with your technical approach. Explain the context, the competing perspectives, how you built and communicated your recommendation, and what happened afterward. We are looking for evidence that you can challenge a decision respectfully, use relevant data, understand the other person’s priorities, and influence without relying solely on authority. Structure your response using STAR, and include the decision’s stakes, your specific actions, the outcome, and what you learned.
