Dr Orlaigh Quinn the guest on this podcast is one of a rare breed. She rose through the Irish Civil Servant to become the Secretary General or head of the government Department of Enterprise Trade and Employment in Ireland. There have only ever been 13 women to reach this position. What is even more impressive is that she was a trail blazer with few women role models.
