Seth Siegel is vice president of the Americas for Cisco Consulting Services, where he leads and executes Cisco’s consulting strategy across all industries. Siegel began his career working in public service for the New York State Assembly and the U.S. Congress when, several years ahead of the dot-com boom, he realized the power of technology and founded Design Tek, one of the first web design firms solely dedicated to political content. After running Design Tek, Siegel was hired by the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York to develop outreach programs to foster stronger relationships with not-for-profit entities that relied on the bank for funding. He was then hired by U.S. West Long Distance as corporate webmaster. Oracle subsequently hired him to create and implement the e-commerce strategy for one of its most important consulting divisions, Americas Communications. Once the strategy was fully implemented, Oracle realized revenue opportunities in excess of $100M. Siegel then went to Sun Microsystems in 1999. At Sun, he served in various roles leading to him becoming the global managing director of financial services consulting. After Sun, Siegel joined Deloitte Consulting for 8 years. Siegel is a published author, speaker and recognized expert on the workplace of tomorrow and creating innovation cycles. He has appeared on multiple radio programs and in newspapers including the Wall Street Journal on issues such as modernization, workplace reform and technology innovation. @cisco
