Description

Two days after the murder of George Floyd, Cisco held a virtual all-hands meeting on race for 30,000 employees. But that conversation was marred by racist comments posted by a handful of Cisco employees. Fran Katsoudas, Cisco’s Chief People Officer, joins host Porter Braswell to discuss how she addressed this incident and held people accountable for their actions. She also explains how Cisco engages with race in a global context and shares her experiences as a Latina climbing the corporate ladder.
