??My very first "corporate job" entailed running around the country installing the physical networking equipment and cabling at a lil over 100 branches across the US. That first year I spent over 300 days on the road and walked into every single one of those branch offices. Towards the end of the year I started to notice something - the energy and "buzzing" in the office I could feel (or couldn't) was directly correlated to how well that branch was doing. I was honing a skill I didn't even know existed, I started to call this "branch intuition". It's been 20+ years since that first year on the road, and it's a skill I still depend on. ?? I share this lil tidbit from my life with you because I want you to understand the energy and buzzing I experienced last week at F5's Connect, they're FY25 Global Sales kickoff. It was in-line with the most successful "branch intuitions" I've experienced. I've never been more excited about F5's future and what's in store for FY25 and beyond - the future is here, the future is now.. Oh, and not a bad stage to share?? ??- Lets goooo FY25!!!!
