This is a great article, Joe! I truly appreciate reading this from our leadership! As a female in technology for many years, I've been very lucky most of the time. I have had some terrific mentors, and advocates to push me forward in my career. I believe that advocacy aligns with our Cisco Culture from the time that I embraced it 20 plus years ago I have always benefited from folks willing to lend a hand, offer advice, encourage me along the way. This article from you inspires me to do my part. Whatever I can do for someone of a different make up than me, perhaps younger, newer in field who could benefit from what I've experienced it's time for me to commit to sponsoring somebody.
