Civilian commander of a largely military expedition into an unknown galaxy. Where she has to deal with the likes of John Sheppard (who wanted to kamikaze a nuke into a Hive Ship) and Rodney McKay (who blew up a SOLAR SYSTEM). Not only deal with them, she has to HARNESS them, make them work together, for the good of the expedition, make their minds WORK to solve the problems facing them, she had to engender their loyalty (which she definitely did), she had to make them OBEY (which she had moderate success with)...she had to make it all WORK. And she DID.
Not a fighter, doesn't have any special skills, other than her brain and her iron will...but she made that WORK for her.
