Cisco UK & Ireland

This month we’re launching a new “Tech Talk” series, a spin off from our main Cisco UKI Podcast where, in each 30 minute episode, we’ll deep dive into a specific area of technology with one of our favourite Cisco experts! In this month’s episode we discover Cisco DNA Spaces with Tina Gundersen, Global Sales Director at Cisco DNA Spaces.

In this month’s episode we’re celebrating International Women’s Day 2022 (8th March).

Collette and Rosie will be chatting to Wendy Mars (President of Cisco EMEAR) about her career journey and being a successful female leader at Cisco – as well as cheese sandwiches and her search for a new canine companion. Keen to get a different perspective on IWD, Collette and Rosie also have a chat with Shane Heraty (Managing Director, Cisco Scotland & Ireland) about the importance of building a diverse team, challenging the status quo and what it’s like being a dad to daughters in today’s world.

In this month’s episode we’re celebrating National Apprenticeship Week! Collette and Rosie will be chatting to David Meads, Chief Exec of Cisco UKI, as he shares his thoughts on the importance of mentors, developing skills and diversity in the workplace - and puts the pressure on Collette and Rosie in a fun game of “Ping2Win”. There’s also a great conversation with some of our most recent Cisco apprentices who share their apprenticeship journeys and career highlights so far!

In this month’s episode Collette and Rosie dive into the world of Cisco Meraki as they’re joined by colleagues Gary Daly and Joe Weiss to hear all about how Meraki’s technology is helping businesses to simplify the deployment of WI-FI, routers, sensors and more and to kick off the new year they’ll be discussing what they are all doing to set themselves up for the year ahead through various self-care methods.

In part two of this special launch episode, Rosie and Collette chat to best-selling author, former primary school teacher and all-round funny guy Gavin Oattes (https://gavinoattes.com/) as he shares how we can inject joy into our lives every day and why we should always strive to be the milk.

In part one of this special launch episode, Rosie and Collette share their career journeys and talk about their current roles at Cisco. They also chat to former Cisco UK & Ireland Podcast host, Justin Woolen, about his job, his dog, his drill bits and how he really feels about handing over the podcast to two millennials.

How does technology influence our lives, work and relationships? Join Cisco co-hosts Collette and Rosie as they embrace a balanced life in the tech world and interview inspiring guests. Disclaimer: We like things explained simple. We’ll take the tech acronyms out and put the fun in.
