Whether on stage or in the classroom, she has an innate ability to transform staff into leaders, drawing out the inner "office rockstar." As the former Chief Executive Assistant to the CEO of Cisco, a global corporation based in Silicon Valley, Debbie supported the company's growth from a multimillion-dollar business to a multibillion-dollar enterprise. Known as the CEO's "right hand," she increased his productivity by 40 percent.
