latinas in leadership

Dr. Laura Murillo takes the term "girl-boss" to a whole new level. Not only is she the founding President/CEO of the Houston Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, she is also the founding executive producer and host of six radio stations, four TV stations, the author of the international best selling book, Lead in Life, previously the highest ranked Latina at Memorial Hermann in the Texas medical center, and so much more (if you can believe it!). Dr. Murillo has accomplished many great things that put Latina professionals at the forefront of the conversation. She has created history for her fellow Latinas by breaking the systemic barriers that prevent minorities from occupying high power positions. Host, Anjelica Cazares, sits down with Dr. Murillo to discuss her amazing career, and how she uses her success to give back to her communities and help others tap into their potential to become successful leaders themselves.
