Background

About Daisuke Naya

I lead Software & Services Sales at Cisco Japan, driving the transformation of how enterprises create value through software, services, consulting, customer success, and partner ecosystems. My passion is not simply bringing technology to market—it is helping organizations translate the AI era into tangible business outcomes. I work with customers to transform operating models, accelerate business innovation, and build sustainable growth by aligning technology with executive priorities. A key focus of my work today is AgenticOps Transformation—reimagining enterprise operations for an AI-agent-first world. I believe the next generation of enterprise operating models will be built by integrating AI, automation, observability, security, and service management into intelligent, autonomous systems that continuously learn and improve. This shift represents not just an operational evolution, but a fundamental transformation in how organizations create value. Beyond leading business in Japan, I work closely with global leadership across strategy, product, services, and sales organizations. My role is to connect the unique needs of the Japanese market with global priorities—aligning strategy, forecasting, execution, product direction, and investment decisions to deliver long-term customer success. My leadership philosophy is centered on creating clarity, empowering people, and enabling organizations to perform at their best. Complex transformations are never achieved by individual expertise alone. They require shared vision, structured thinking, trusted collaboration, and disciplined execution across diverse stakeholders. I am particularly interested in the future of AI-native enterprises, AgenticOps, business transformation, organizational design, customer success, and leadership in an increasingly autonomous world.
