It's not all that often we see South Asians in sales. This week, Simi welcomes Renu Gupta, Head of Sales at Thrive Global. Renu is a seasoned sales executive who’s traversed some of the most ambitious tech companies in the world. She currently serves as the VP of Sales at Arianna Huffington’s famed company Thrive Global, a behavior change platform tackling the burnout epidemic. Previously, she served as a Director of Sales at Slack for Large Enterprise, where she built the sales team and closed Fortune 100 customers.  She has an extensive record in the tech space: having worked and led sales teams at Dropbox, Google, and Cisco. A trailblazer in two traditionally male-dominated arenas (sales and tech), Renu has a record-breaking repertoire. In this episode, she shares how she got her start and paved her path to the C-suite. Want to learn what it takes to sell well and sell yourself?
