Thrilled to be sharing my views on"What Your CXO should know about partners and ecosystems" at the 2024 #ASAPGlobalAllianceSummit with Nancy Ridge. I have been building partnering programs since the ’80s. What surprises me over my career as a partnering professional, and now as a consultant, is that I still have to explain why partners are crucial to business growth and viability. In fact, I can recount times I was grilled by C-level executives to justify resources and the very existence of the partner program. This is despite the fact that the largest and highest capitalized companies on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley have vast ecosystems of partners, such as Apple, Google, Amazon. Not that it is essential that every company have a massive platform play of partners, but even an early-stage startup can benefit from a carefully curated community of strategic partners. #partnerecosystems #collaborativeconnections #ecosystemsconnections #strategicpartners Philip Sack Manoj Bhatia Molly Black Michael Burke Jay McBain Jay Chitnis David Pilgrim Bill Lauterbach

Thrilled to be presenting on this topic with you Norma Watenpaugh. I admire how you use proven principles to help orgs create those partnerships using management disciplines vs. ad hoc - a much more successful approach!
