How to approach it

Show emotional maturity. Pick a professional disagreement rather than a personal feud, explain how you listened and found common ground, and finish with a positive outcome for the work and the relationship.

Example answer

"A designer and I disagreed on a checkout redesign — she wanted a multi-step flow, I was worried about performance. Instead of debating in Slack, I suggested we sit down and each explain our underlying concern. It turned out we both cared about conversion. We agreed to test both versions, and the multi-step flow won with a small performance tweak I proposed. We ended up working together on three more projects."
