Maturation Acceleration

Soderlund reported his positive early conversations with Zscaler partners. Those discussions showed him the company’s “amazing foundation” for its partner program, he said. 

Ultimately he’ll work to speed up the pace of the growth the program is making, he said. That includes both the go-to-market strategy and alignment with sales leaders, he said.

“The party community is really excited, because the opportunity for growth and investment is an all-time high right now,” he said. “The partners want to lean in and do more. What they kept telling me was, ‘You’ll allow [the program] to be able to quickly mature.'”
