- Focus on the lifecycle experience
The Acceleration Center's directive is to partner with the Executive Leadership Team, General Managers, and functional leaders to accelerate the company's overall strategy by enabling the success of cross-platform products, services, and cross-functional initiatives.

Your ability to swiftly and accurately analyze sophisticated data allows you to develop compelling strategic recommendations and implement them with precision. You excel at driving critical senior-level conversations, proactively addressing risks and roadblocks, and building consensus among cross-functional teams. Your strong interpersonal and communication skills, adaptability, creativity in problem-solving, and project management expertise make you a vital asset to the leadership team. With an ownership attitude, you take initiative and achieve impactful results, fostering a culture of high organizational performance through effective partnerships and collaboration.

Why Cisco
#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an inclusive future for all.
We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (40 years strong) and only about hardware, but we’re also a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do – you can’t put us in a box
But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.) Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, bold steps, and take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.
So, you have colorful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us
