Partner Relationships Need a Personalized Touch, Even When You’re Not In-Person. In our recent channel chief virtual roundtable, we asked leading technology channel executives what was keeping them up at night.

Tip 4: Ensure a Three-Way Value Proposition. In an ideal world, altruism or selflessness – the capacity for doing something without expectation of anything in return except for the sheer pleasure of being able to serve others – is a good virtue to possess.
