🎉I am so thrilled to announce that I have joined
@blocks as @Square's Global Head of Seller Community!

I could not be more excited to return to the #commerce space helping sellers succeed.

I am truly grateful for the opportunity to be part of this amazing team!🙌

@brittandmortar It takes unbelievable courage, strength, and resilience to change course, free yourself, and go into the unknown. And it’s so much more than a making a decision! Forever proud and in awe of you 💪

[Lauren Clevenger✨ @lauren_clev]

me making @marissacaputo and @karen_pwhite start watching The Bachelor so I would have someone to talk to about it at work 😅

My love language is forcing everyone to become obsessed with my current obsession so they suffer with me. I am the opposite of a gatekeeper. I am a gateway.

@soundslikecanoe But what about just communicating? Building relationships, office water cooler talk, real-time collaboration that’s not a meeting? Seems like this would be detrimental to the culture and cohesion of your team. 🤷‍♀️

[Lauren Clevenger✨ @lauren_clev]

Starting a new job on Monday ‼️and I am very excited to be inheriting an awesome community team. 🙌

What are your tips/best advice for stepping in to manage a team at a new company?

[Lauren Clevenger✨ @lauren_clev]

So excited to watch @BonillasDrew in 5 minutes on the virtual stage at #CMXsummit
