Do you think she’s been doing a good job leading GM?

The first round of awardees for the Automotive Hall of Fame and one of the inductees is General Motors CEO Mary Barra. As the first female CEO of an automaker in the entire world, she has been celebrated over and over, so this move really isn’t all that shocking.

Just remember who GM is sharing your driving data with here.

In the announcement by the Automotive Hall of Fame, Barra is praised for her handling of the massive ignition switch recall, establishing “gender equity and equal pay”, and being “viewed as one of today’s most inspirational leaders.” From that entry we learn Barra’s greatest accomplishment is a parts recall some would argue was bungled, GM was supposedly paying women less to do the same work – a violation of federal law if true – and that she’s inspirational for being inspiring.
