This year’s Cisco Live was virtual, given the current circumstances our world is in with the pandemic. Even though we couldn’t all travel and meet in person, Charles and I still enjoyed participating this year and wanted to share some of our highlights over the past couple of days. 

If you don't share a selfie, did you really attend CiscoLive?

One presentation I attended on the first day of Cisco Live was Chuck Robbins’ Keynote. During his presentation, he made some wonderful points, and identified 6 Strategic Objectives:

1. Secure, Agile Networks
2. Optimized Application Experiences
3. Future of Work
4. Internet for the Future
5. Capabilities at the Edge
6. End-to-End Security

Chuck also shared a powerful question to reflect on during his presentation: “What kind of future do you want to see?” 

The following day, I attended a great “A License to Design” session covering CCDE. Here were the big takeaways...

As we approach Thanksgiving Day here in the states, I've been reflecting on what I'm thankful for this year. Even though 2020 has been a very unique year, I'm thankful for lots of good things that have happened. Here are just a few examples: 

• My youngest daughter got married to a wonderful young man who we love like a son.
• We added another member (Mariam Said) to our KWTrain team.
• My family members (each of whom I love and am grateful for) are happy and healthy.
• And I'm thankful for YOU. Although this year has been a challenging one for many businesses, you've continued to look to us to help you advance your IT career. 

I pray that each of you have a blessed holiday season.

With a grateful heart,

Kevin
