The Age of the Partner is here; when partners combine Cisco solutions with their customized services you have a recipe for achieving powerful customer outcomes.

I’m incredibly proud of these leaders for being the first recognized for their accomplishments and contributions to creating, hiring, and retaining a more diverse workforce and talent pool.

Cisco is well represented this year by leaders from across the partner organization, so let’s take a look at who’s on the list including our 4 leaders who made the Power 100 list.

Over the last six months, I’ve met with hundreds of Cisco Partners around the world and discussed the Age of the Partner.  Our partners are confirming they’re seeing and experiencing the same shifts that I lay out in the paper – and having these exact conversations with their customers every day.

Today marks the release of the 2022 Cisco Purpose Report, and while we continue to make great strides in our ESG efforts, we know that we can't do it without our partners. Read more to learn about Cisco's industry-first Partnering for Purpose Initiative.

As we wrap up Cisco Partner Summit 2022, I’m not only energized by the past few days but very confident of our opportunity as we move into The Age of the Partner.

At Cisco Partner Summit, we celebrate our incredible partners and the amazing things they make possible. I’m thrilled to recognize 21 of our top-performing global partners and their respective achievements in 2022.

There’s simply nothing better than gathering together with a group of people to engage in conversation, share perspectives, and celebrate. This year Partner Summit will take place November 1-3 and I cannot wait for you to see what we have planned for you.

I couldn’t be prouder to work alongside these amazing people on CRN's Top 100 Executives of 2022. Congratulations to Chuck Robbins, Jeetu Patel, Alexandra Zagury, and Oliver Tuszik on constantly innovating and pushing the industry forward.!
