Sample Answer
Last quarter I supported three execs, two major clients, and four vendors while launching a product update. Eight deadlines overlapped in one week. I mapped tasks by impact and urgency — anything blocking revenue or client commitments got top priority. I negotiated scope shifts with one vendor to move a noncritical feature to the next sprint, which freed 18 hours for the release checklist. I sent a morning brief to all stakeholders outlining trade-offs, new ETA, and contingency plans; the clients appreciated the transparency and we avoided surprise escalations. We shipped on time, retained a $45K contract, and cut post-release fixes by 60% because I enforced a pre-launch QA window.
