You Won’t Get Promoted for Doing a Good Job!-Back By Popular Demand
Meet June Bower
June started her career at Apple Computer in 1981 when there were fewer than 200 people in the company. She went on to many leadership positions in marketing including VP of Brand Marketing at Adobe, Head of Corporate Communications at Cisco, CMO of Webex and CMO of a start up that was sold to Alcatel Lucent where she became the VP of the department that bought her company. Today she consults on marketing as well giving workshops to companies on how to succeed at work. She is passionate about helping people learn what it really takes to succeed, something that took her far too long to learn through trial and error.
