Cisco Leaders Featured in CRN’s 2021 Women of the Channel List – Cisco Blogs

Once again CRN has released its annual Women of the Channel List, and it’s an honor to be included. Thank you, CRN, and most importantly thank you to our partners for voting to recognize the efforts of some of the amazing women of Cisco.

This year 25 Cisco leaders were named to CRN’s Women of the Channel! Each year, this list recognizes women leaders for their influence, extraordinary expertise and vision within the channel. I am incredibly proud and humbled to share this honor with so many colleagues and friends.

Clearly, Cisco is well represented this year, so let’s take a look at who’s on the list.
