In this episode of Partnerships Unraveled, we’re joined by Meg Brennan, Global Head of Partner Strategy, Programs, and Experience at HP Inc. With over three decades of channel experience from taking partner calls in the '90s to leading global strategy at one of the world’s most recognized tech brands. Meg shares a compelling story of career evolution, leadership, and ecosystem transformation.

We unpack how the partner landscape has shifted from linear resale models to complex, multi-partner ecosystems, and how those changes are reshaping channel roles. Meg also offers practical frameworks for mapping career growth in the channel, including a deceptively simple tool she’s used to coach and promote talent within and beyond her own teams. Whether you’re navigating your next career step, rethinking your partner strategy, or mentoring future channel leaders, this episode is packed with actionable insights.

Tune in to hear Meg’s vision for the future of channel roles in an AI-powered world, actionable advice on building meaningful networks, and why mentorship may be the most important investment you can make for your team and your legacy.

During the episode, Meg shared the one-page career mapping tool she uses to help people identify their strengths, map next-step roles, and build an actionable development plan. She generously provided a version we can share publicly with our listeners.
