Shaw,sharp and assertive

摘要

Natalie Shaw is no stranger to working in professions that are predominately male-oriented. Having formerly been employed within the car industry, the secretary of the International Shipping Federation confesses to Safety at Sea International that she is not particularly compassionate and that her earlier career may have had something to do with this. "I think in the car industry when I first started off I was one of a very few women, and to be able to assert myself in that environment I probably had to put some very hard edges on myself very quickly," she acknowledged.
