The biggest disappointment I have experienced here is with the Partnerships team. Our partnerships in the US is lacking effective leadership, strategy and direction. As an experienced software seller for many years, I have always been successful in leveraging partnerships to pipe new opportunities, and bring in outside experts to help influence my deals. In other roles I could count on partners to source or heavily influence 30-50% of deals.
Unfortunately, this is not the case here now, mainly do to a clear lack of effective leadership in the US with partnerships. We don't have enough partners, the right partners, or enough pipeline from partners and this is a clear missing element in our GTM efforts in the US. (it appears to be working much better in other regions across the world, but not the US?)
