I love getting out into the field with partners and our sales teams because I get remarkably candid feedback on what Cisco can do better.

One of the many cultural attributes that I truly love about Cisco is our amazing giving back spirit.  Over the last few weeks, I have witnessed how our employees came together to help fellow Cisco employees in Houston and Florida respond to the devastation that has occurred in both areas.  This week…

Partner feedback is at the core of everything we do at Cisco. Talking with partners is one of the best parts of my job. Over the last few months, I’ve been traveling across the Americas attending a number of partner events – Commercial Channel Advisory Board (CCAB), Partner Operations Advisory Boar…
