As social media is really beginning to be openly adopted as a viable tool for business here within Cisco, we are seeing a jump in conversations and collaboration among our peers and colleagues on best practices and techniques. Only in the last few months a group of us at Cisco have come together to form social media round table discussions to keep conversations open and ideas flowing.
As a new hire as Cisco, it is encouraging to see a myriad of different folks around the company being transparent and open to new and different ideas, even if they are unconventional. That’s not to say that everyone agrees on everything, but there is that push to always be thinking outside of the box.
When great ideas are shared, everyone is more than willing to walk those that are interested through the process.
It is more discussions and round tables like these that will continue to push the envelope. My only hope is that we see more of these in plenty of different technology areas within the company.
