No Longer with Cisco

I remember when the land where my office is now was an orange grove. (And that doesn't make me all that old...)

5 min read

If you ask him, Jonathan Rosenberg will tell you that collaboration is exciting again. Not just because of technology, but changes in the way people work. As he explains it, “today’s challenges are far too complex for one mind to solve.”

Let’s get this thing started. To answer the question in the headline, “yes.” A thousand times yes. Maybe more. I spent my day in panels related to team collaboration. Here’s what I heard (plus a case study video for good measure). Oh, and glitter.
