Book Description

JOHN CHAMBERS AND THECISCO WAY: Navigating through Volatility
Under the leadership of CEO John Chambers, Cisco Systems has become one of the world's leading technology companies. Chambers's management philosophy and business strategies have allowed Cisco to dominate the computer networking industry and to move into cutting-edge telecommunications markets. In the few short years since Chambers took over as chief executive, the once-invisible "Internet plumbing" supplier has become a household name, and its CEO has emerged as a leading light in high tech.

John Chambers and the Cisco Way: Navigating through Volatility offers an up-close look at the career, philosophy, and vision of one of America's top CEOs. Through expert insights and extensive interviews of industry analysts, venture capitalists, and Cisco executives, employees, customers, and competitors, this engaging book skillfully explores Chambers's rise to prominence and the evolution of Cisco Systems.

High-tech reporter and author John Waters traces Chambers's career from salesman to chief executive, explores his management style, and details his victories and defeats as Chambers steers Cisco through the unpredictable and volatile technology sector.

You'll see how past business experiencesboth good and badhave shaped the way Chambers manages today, and learn how he keeps Cisco on top by:

  • Utilizing networking technology to speed processes and slash expenses
  • Listening to customers to remain competitive in rapidly changing markets
  • Empowering employees for light-speed decision making
  • Organizing the company around networks instead of rigid hierarchies
  • Implementing a proven growth-by-acquisition strategy
  • Efficiently integrating acquired companies
  • Aggressively moving into new and broader business segments
More than just a study of key business strategies and best practices, John Chambers and the Cisco Way is the compelling story of a businessman's personal journey. It is a portrait of a hard-working and innovative executive, perhaps not as well known to the public as his peers, but as influential as anyone in business today.

Some Useful Information but not much business insight 2007/6/15
By John Reader - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
This book covers some of Cisco's corporate and Chambers' personal history. However the book does not present any detailed analysis of either. Instead it relies on press-release and newspaper excerpts to document parts of the Cisco and Chambers story. It does not appear that the author had much direct access to John Chambers.

In places, the book presents analysis which is either naive or false. For example, the book claims that Cisco viewed Sycamore as a "big-eight" competitor at one point. I am sure Cisco viewed Sycamore as a competitor, but it could not have viewed it as an imminent threat - Sycamore was a tiny startup born in the late 90s around the same time as Juniper. Sycamore was always a much smaller threat than Juniper was and both companies were (probably) 1/100th the size of Cisco (or smaller) in terms of revenue.

All in all, this book is suitable for somebody who wants to get a broad view of cisco's evolution. It is not suitable for somebody looking for precise facts or for deep business analysis.
Medium read, good strategy on acquisitions 2008/11/13
By Farnoosh Brock - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
Chambers is no doubt a superb leader, excellent speaker, widely respected business man and a hero for all of Cisco. The acquisition strategy is indeed very true, and this book explains how Cisco has managed to grow to its current size by the multitudes of acquisitions and the unique blending of the incoming cultures into its own. It has built a mosaic well worth being proud of and continues to grow in this manner. I think it's a good book if Cisco and acquisition strategy is of interest to you.
Surprisingly readable 2002/5/2
By Jay - (Amazon.com)
形式:ハードカバー
I was given this book as a present. I warmly thanked the giver for her thoughtfullness, but secretly, I dreaded reading the book. These unauthorized bios are generally either full of senseless/salacious details, or they're dry as an annual report. Most of them are suitable as torture devices. Why do I bother you ask? Knowledge is power, and I invest in stocks.

Well, big surprise.

This book reads with an almost perfect balance of translated tech talk and personal detail about Chambers. This is no simple feat for the author, as Cisco's core business is anything but easy to explain, but you will be amazed at how much you painlessly learn about the innards of the net and how / where Cisco fits.
I could go on, but your time is better spent buying and reading this book.

I hope Waters has another of these in the hopper.
