Cisco Globalisation
October 30, 2007Globalisation is not just about India, China or emerging markets, it is about networked economies and the development of word-class talent in all markets, bringing customers new ideas, perspectives and advantages. The Cisco globalisation strategy represents a shift from a geographical focus to a business management focus on skill sets and talents, and networking technology is contributing to the ability of companies to collaborate across borders and cultures and offer world class service to customers regardless of location.
