Explanation

Evaluating your company's strengths and skills is the recommended first step because any IoT initiative must begin with an internal assessment - understanding what capabilities, resources, and expertise your organization already possesses before pursuing any external action. Without this foundation, you cannot make informed decisions about what IoT solutions are feasible or where gaps exist. Looking for triggering business events (B) is a valid part of IoT planning but comes after you know what your company can actually act on. Conducting sales calls (C) is a vendor/partner activity, not a strategic planning step for the organization adopting IoT. Calling a Cisco partner Account Manager (D) is a support resource you'd engage once you've defined your direction - not before you've assessed your own position.

Memory tip: Think "Inside before Outside" - you always look inward at your own strengths first before reaching outward to partners, customers, or market events.
