Background

About Theodore Prime

I specialize in creating innovative solutions that address gaps in existing workflows, empowering agile teams to better retain institutional knowledge through tools like playbooks. My work enhances brand equity by improving client deliverables, such as evolving presentations and ritual competencies. Additionally, I help teams adapt their offerings to align with Cisco’s shifting priorities through comprehensive research. Personal Background I am the son of Haitian immigrants, two-time transfer student, and early career professional with past appointments including application support, business development, and project management. I am a MBA alum of the Wisconsin School of Business at UW-Madison and Consortium for Graduate Study in Management Fellowship program. In graduate school, my MBA concentration was Strategic Human Resources Management with a keen interest in diversity and inclusion, talent acquisition, and learning and development. This strategic focus has helped me seamlessly transition to Cisco Systems as a DEI Project Manager where I provide business transformation, DEI content strategy, and client engagement advisory to internal Cisco hiring managers and recruiters seeking to build global diverse teams. My Northeast (Bucks County, PA) upbringing taught me grit, respect, and straightforwardness from hard-working, blue collar people. My college experience in the South (North Carolina) awakened my attention to subtleties of language, racial tension, and the importance on cultivating personal career champions. The Midwest (Madison) showed me that the best opportunities can come from the unlikeliest places, but a heavy parka might become a prerequisite to access it. These personal and professional experiences have honed my ability to adapt to new environments, embrace transition, adopt new skills, and foster meaningful relationships across diverse cultures and identities. I look forward to helping great teams unlock their hidden potential to create market defining products and services.
