#LeadershipTuesdays: Problems Have To Be Solved...Mary Barra

"The biggest lesson I learned, and I take it to everything I tackle now, large or small, inside of work and outside: If you have a problem, you've got to solve it. Because that problem is going to get bigger in six months. It could get bigger in two years. But it's not going to get smaller with time." 

––Mary Barra, CEO, General Motors

A Lesson Without Words…Dolores Huerta

“My mother never made me do anything for my brothers, like serve them. I think that's an important lesson, especially for the Latino culture, because the women are expected to be the ones that serve and cook and whatever. Not in our family. Everybody was equal.”

—Dolores Huerta, Labor Leader and Civil Rights Activist 


Dolores Huerta is the originator of the phrase, "Sí, se puede"! (Spanish for "Yes, it is possible")

Making A Difference...Dr. Antonia C. Novello

--Antonia Novello, 14th Surgeon General of the United States; first woman and first hispanic to become surgeon general of the U.S.
