SHIFT HAPPENS EP.30 - Pack the Parachute w/Stacy Betts

30 episodes… already?! 🎙️ And this one hits different. Jeff sits down with Stacy Betts—VP leading Splunk’s Americas Partner Sales—to unpack a career that spans from the early days of the internet to the frontlines of AI transformation. But this isn’t just about strategy or a $28B acquisition… it’s about leadership that lasts. From not knowing what the “internet” was in 1994 to helping shape one of Cisco’s most important moves, Stacy brings a rare perspective—and even rarer humility. Along the way, he shares unforgettable stories, powerful frameworks, and the kind of quotes you’ll carry with you long after the episode ends. And one idea you won’t forget: Who’s packing your parachute? Listen if you want to: 🔍 Rethink leadership through the lens of purpose, gratitude, and action 🤖 Understand where Cisco + Splunk + partners are headed in the AI era 💟 Walk away with stories and frameworks you’ll actually use (and repeat) 30 episodes in—and this is what it’s all about. Let’s make shift happen #CiscoShiftHappensPodcast
