IDG: As a CEO, what lessons do you take from what has been happening at Cisco?

Klayko: Focus. I've known John for a long time, and he's a big company, he has to grow and so forth, For me, I have trouble keeping track of the product lines that I currently have, and all I am is a networking company. So I think anybody just needs to focus. If you look at any company that's been successful, that's what they've done. We haven't varied our strategy. I get accused of being very boring and actually not being able to make PowerPoints, because my strategy slides haven't changed in six years.
