“The Academy, with its ‘just do it’ mentality, encouraged me to have confidence in my own abilities. Whether my bosses at the time sent me to the EU Parliament session in Strasbourg or to Budapest with the Foreign Minister, I always agreed before self-doubt could set in. And then I worked hard to live up to the trust they had placed in me.”
