2010 Channel Chiefs: Who's Who In Distribution

Distribution Channel Chiefs fill a different role than their vendor peers -- if you have to evangelize the channel at a distributor you're at the wrong company. But their jobs are no less vital to the success of solution providers. It's the distribution executives who maintain the balance between what vendors are trying to accomplish and what solution providers need to serve customers.
