	Description:		International Women’s Day is today, when the world celebrates the many achievements women have accomplished over time. CarAdvice has always been supportive of giving women the chance to move ahead in what is a heavily male-dominated automotive industry. It is also something Holden takes seriously, establishing a number of initiatives to promote gender equality; such as committing to achieving a 50/50 gender balance in its workforce by 2022. Chairman and Managing Director, Mark Bernhard, is a registered Male Champion of Change – an Australian Human Rights Commission program which promotes women and equality on a daily basis – and GM CEO Mary Barra is the first and only female to be CEO of a major, global automotive company. This week, I took the opportunity to speak with just a handful of women working across a wide range of roles with Holden. These women talked about how they broke into the industry, their career highlights, how equality has changed, and what it’s like working in a male-dominated industry.
