June was part of a team that had struggled hard to finish a difficult assignment. "I wanted to call it a day and get home as much as anyone," she recalls. But she found herself saying, "I’m sorry, but we need to do some more work on this."

"When the report was presented we were commended for picking up on the very thing I said we’d missed. I was right and everyone had to respect that."
