Amy Benziger, head of projects at Cisco Hyper Innovation Living Labs (CHILL), talks about bringing start-up culture to the 70,000+ Cisco team - discussing why championing agility, innovation and adaptability is key and how “shut up and build it” is what makes their 48-hour rapid prototyping model such a success.
