Executive Perspectives

Joe Vitalone, Chief Revenue Officer, Extreme Networks

“As a market leader, it’s important for us to continue to augment our sales leadership team with innovative and experienced leaders that have a strong track record of taking market share and growing revenue. Pete inherently understands the importance of the convergence of networking and security, as well as which levers to pull when it comes to aligning our sales and channel efforts for maximum output. Paul has created a solid foundation for success in the Americas, which I know he’ll continue to leverage to grow our footprint in emerging, high growth markets like Canada and LATAM.
