In this podcast, the Scottish Success team are joined by Scotland's first female Presiding Officer Tricia Marwick.  We hear how she reached such a position of high office as well as who inspired her success and what challenges she faced throughout her life and career.

In May 2011 Tricia Marwick became only the fourth Presiding Officer of Scotland and the first female to hold the role.  It was a position of responsibility that the Fife politician could never have imagined when she first started out in grassroots politics in response to the miner’s strikes.  We caught up with her in Fife where she still lives to discuss her success.
