Who is your role model?
– Cristina Siletto, Fiat Auto
My mother for following her heart. She has a doctorate in chemistry but she left the field because she was more passionate about becoming an artist. She has never regretted her decision.
– Camilla Palmertz, Volvo
My aunt, Joan Burke, who was a member of Parliament in Ireland, because of her confidence and her positive attitude. She inspired me to believe that I could do anything
I set my mind to.
– Pauline Walsh, Ford of Europe
My paternal grandmother. Although she died 10 years before I was born, she has served as a positive influence on me because she was so ahead of her time. She balanced bringing up three kids with her career as a dentist while living in czar-ruled Russia
in the early 20th century.
– Tatiana Butovitsch Temm, Volvo
My mother and my grandmother because of their strength and independence.
– Anne Asensio, GM
