Through his 30 years of experience in the cable industry, Shane Portfolio has come to realize that the "C" in C-suite stands for "culture." After serving in the U.S. Army, Portfolio rose through the corporate ranks—from the Comcast call center to senior-level leadership. Along the way, he discovered that winning teams are diverse teams. On this episode of the Voices of Experience podcast, Portfolio lists the soft skills needed to support a team that is bought in and ready to produce high-quality work. He also discusses his commitment to lifelong learning, the future of the cable industry and his new role as chief technology officer at Congruex.
