Gallup Client Development Consultant interview questions

Some of the phone interview questions are more descriptive so have some examples in your head that you want to use to demonstrate your strengths. However, the questions where unlike anything other interview I've had, and aren't really about the main competency's they normally ask for. some of the more basic where, are you persuasive, tell me a time you have persuaded someone. are you a leader, tell me a time you've broken bad news to someone - Even these aren't very standard

i was asked question such as " who do you think pays you" how do u think workers should be compensated? when in you life do u think you have made the biggest contribution?(on which i didn't comprehend ) tell me a time when you have been a leader?. when have you been strict to a team member ? how would you work with a cynical person?
