Episode 72: Craig Lennon, Global Partnerships Lead at Google

“Learn to be a great teammate! I’ve played on teams where I was the best, and teams where I clearly wasn’t — and I learned a lot from both!” 🌍

— Craig Lennon, Global Partnerships Lead at Google, in conversation with Anurag Aggarwal


From growing up on the Jersey Shore surrounded by the telecom greats…

To shaping the way phone numbers are administered in the U.S.…

To leading Google’s global partnerships in voice and messaging —

Craig’s story is one of grit, gratitude, and grounded leadership!


In this episode of Humans of Telecom, Craig reflects on:

🚀 How a chance first job at Lucent Technologies launched a lifelong telecom journey

🤝 The human lessons behind managing billion-dollar partnerships at Google

💡 Why taking chances (and even failing) early is key to growth

❤️ The discipline of saying “no” and the art of leading with empathy

🧭 His philosophy of service — as a leader, teammate, and parent

⛳ And why golf, family, and reflection keep him grounded amidst global chaos!


Craig’s journey reminds us that true success isn’t found in power, but in purpose —

in serving others, building teams, and believing in yourself before the world does!
