General Motors CEO Mary Barra on Making it in a Male-Dominated Industry
Manage episode 439219260 series 2090100
Mary Barra grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, aka: the heart of the auto industry. Her father worked at General Motors for 40 years, and Mary became a second generation GM’er. She worked her way up the company, studying at the General Motors Institute (yes, it was a thing) to eventually becoming the CEO in 2014. Mary claimed GOAT status in the auto industry for steering the company through several crises – and for being a mentor to other women in the biz.
In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Mary shares:
- Who would make the cut on her cross-country road trip roster
- Why she’s never blinked twice at the rarity of being a woman in the auto industry
- The most difficult crisis she had to navigate a CEO
- Advice to her daughter and other women on when it’s time to leave a job
- Why she views herself as a caretaker to General Motors and what that responsibility means
