A few pull quotes, but it's worth reading the whole thing:
"Ms. Harris can be many things at once: warm but steely on occasion; authoritative but personable...
She has represented the United States frequently during trips to Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas, and has met with more than 150 world leaders. And she has attended three Munich Security Conferences — an annual staple for top-level foreign policy officials to meet and set the Western defense agenda. In recent months, she has also become more directly involved in discussions with global leaders on the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East...
The consensus among foreign officials and diplomats is that Ms. Harris has a firm grip on international affairs...Ms. Harris does have a steelier side that she deploys when needed....Ms. Harris sometimes relies on humor on the global stage, according to several foreign officials who used the adjectives “funny” and “witty” to describe her."
Etc.
It's actually a very thorough article, with a lot of specifics.
