What modern work means for Partners 

 

It means offering both hardware and software to your customers and delivering them in a way that reduces effort and leads to longer-term relationships. It means leading with devices but offering software to make the experience faster and simpler while avoiding the burden of asking your customers for large capital expenditures up front. It means leading with high-level conversations that are focused on collaboration, mobility, and security, rather than bottom-up SKUs and pricing.
