While promoting Money Monster, Jodie opened up about what leadership means to her.

“If you are a woman, you will have a different style of leadership. I confuse people because I am so direct,” Jodie expressed (via Huffington Post). “I am not a bully and will not respond to bullying like a bully. That’s confusing to people. If a woman is direct, it causes confusion, because they don’t know the next step. Very often men are confused by women who do not follow traditional roles in conflict. I don’t think it’s a great plot that men put women down. I think people want to be better and do better, but I think we are stuck with traditional roles.”
