His rich experience, engaging manner and ability to understand partners’ needs will be central to our success as we introduce new partners into the Cisco world, and work more closely with our existing ones to ensure they really profit from their Cisco business. With Cisco game changing technologies, Comstor’s enablement and support initiatives, and Leigh’s guidance and direction, now is a very good time to be a Cisco and Comstor partner.”
