Head’s Up #2
From time to time, I will let you know about an item of possible interest.
In the past, I have posted a few Q&As that provide an excerpt from the “Corner Office” column in the SundayBusiness section of The New York Times. In my opinion, Adam Bryant’s interview of John T. Chambers (chairman and CEO of Cisco Susyems) in the August 2, 2009, issue is far and away the most valuable I have read thus far.
This is a “must read.”
Here’s a link, then search for Corner Office:
