This week on episode #1 of "Resecure The Bag" I interview Coriena Hipple-Merejo: the leader of CRM software company Pipedrive's Florida team.

Coriena is a military #veteran and a #woman-in-technology currently succeeding in a leadership role with a style that’s been shaped by overcoming adversity and learning from occasional failures.

Her strength is leadership and inspiration. She focuses on making the cultural changes that drive engagement and, as a result, improve overall performance. She believes that when people are engaged in the workplace, they focus better and contribute more everyday.

I know Coriena personally, and I've had the privilege of working with her directly. And I can attest to the fact that she's out here living her best life and spreading the positive vibes around as much as possible. Here's our candid discussion on Conquering Life's Obstacles Repeatedly.
