āIt was difficult to be one of the first women to sit on the pit wall. You have to tell people what to doāthey have to trust in what youāre saying and have faith and belief in you. So, it probably did take a bit longer because of that. Not because of anything personal, but more because of peopleās perceptions of how women are and whether they think they can deal with those environments. And I think that was the main thing of concernāof whether youād be able to deal with the pressure.
People often feel women are more emotional, and I can be emotional. Iām not at all when Iām on the pit wall, but I can be in other things in life. That is a strength. And as more and more women get into positions of responsibility, we can show how good that is. Empathy is so important, and a really valuable trait for a leader.ā
