BUSINESS LEADERSHIP & CHANNEL GROWTH
The channel faces significant talent shortages in cybersecurity, cloud engineering, automation, AI and data analytics. This session outlines practical strategies for building a modern workforce, including structured upskilling pathways, apprenticeship programmes, flexible career models and targeted retention strategies.
We also examine emerging hybrid roles — such as workflow automation specialists and data readiness consultants — and help partners understand what skills they need, where to find them and how to build internal capability without overextending resources.
