Chambers' Campus Cameo

Chambers' Campus Cameo

Our business students were energized by College namesake and proud West Virginia native  John Chambers, who visited campus with his wife, Elaine earlier this semester. He inspired our Entrepreneurship classes and student fellows by sharing his lessons learned from 20 years of leading Cisco Systems as CEO.

“Learn from your setbacks. Some of my favorite entrepreneurs failed the first time they launched a start-up,” said Chambers. “They learned from those setbacks and it led them to success on their next venture.”

We are grateful for John’s engagement with our students and his ability to boldly inspire the next generation of business leaders to dream big, take risks, and embrace failure.

In fact, two virtual activities alone in October saw more than 250 students involved in international lecture, case analyses and culture sessions in Hong Kong and Bahrain. “Framed in this way, that's very promising international reach between WVU and these two international partners,” said David Dawley, executive director of the Robbins Center.
