Initially Gordan thought she was highly intelligent with good style (01081) and although she came across as quiet, she had an inner strength (01082) which seemed to allow her to handle Tim (00954). By January 1995 he was describing her as an opinionated, very disciplined, self-willed individual and said that they argued a lot (00872). He felt she was frequently critical without being constructive (00883). He also said that she communicated better upwards than downwards (01104).
She started in October 1994 (00872) and cost them 10% of their annual budget (00878). One of the first things she did was to instigate a programme to establish standards using a CASE tool (00874) thus changing the development style (01104).
