At ForeScout Technologies, which provides automated security to enterprises and government agencies, Cullivan focuses on the digital strategy for the entire organization.

  1. Make people your number one priority by supporting employees, customers, and your community
  2. Be flexible, while remaining authentic
  3. Keep a positive attitude and facilitate fun ways for your team to connect

“Admittedly, it hasn’t been a long period of time,” said Cullivan referring to the relatively short period of time the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our work. “But none of us are exactly sure how long this is going to go on and how do we make sure that we’re taking care of our employees beyond just providing them the productivity tools they need to do their work.”
