"Salesforce offered me a great opportunity to evangelize sales and innovation to the market and their customers -- and it was something I just couldn’t pass up," Bova said in the blog. "When you’re in the fourth or fifth chapter of your career, it’s important to make sure you’re going somewhere for all the right reasons."

She also said Salesforce's philanthropic and social endeavors motivated her to join the San Francisco-based company as much as what it was doing from a business standpoint.
