But, says the 17 year veteran of investment banking, the most challenging part of her career so far has been navigating her three spells of maternity leave. &quot;It was clearly the crunch point - coming back and making sure I was still on track and nothing was going to stop me.&quot; Her successful return to work was largely down to the support of her managers, says French-born Houlot-Hillary, who believes such coaching is key for banks and their female employees. The 39-year-old, co-head of debt capital markets for financial firms at Morgan Stanley, is now a key player in the bank's diversity program, which includes coaching for women returning to work after having children.</p><br clear="all"/>
