Today’s cable operators need to grow their broadband service offerings while reducing real estate needs and power costs without the expense of building out their analog optic network. To address this issue, Aver helped create a low TCO model for Harmonic’s centralized and distributed CCAP solutions that decreases operators’ acquisition costs, operating costs and long-term and change costs. Being a mentor, she says, means leading by example. “The best way to motivate others is to set the standard for excellence.”

 

What’s the most important aspect of mentoring?

To me, being a mentor means leading by example. The best way to motivate others is to set the standard for excellence.

 

Best trick for maintaining the personal-professional life balance?

Find at least one thing you’re passionate about outside of work. Examples might include your family, a sport, or hobby. Spending time each week focused on non-work activities clears your head for better thinking at work.

 

Your favorite trick for unwinding?

Going on walks is proven to have many health benefits. Whether it’s a stroll around the Harmonic building midday, or outside, where I’m immersed in nature, I find that taking a walk is relaxing and a great mood booster.
