What's your greatest weakness? Answers that pass the smell test

**Example shape** "I used to over-index on technical depth in stakeholder updates; now I lead with decision impact, then detail on request—PM feedback scores improved."
Practice aloud in mocks—weakness answers fail when they sound scripted.
