Tangoe Director of Channels Tom Koch Recognized as 2019 CRN® Channel Chief for Second Consecutive Year


Tangoe, the Telecom Expense Management (TEM) and Managed Mobility Services (MMS) leader, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Tom Koch, Director of Global Channels and Alliances at Tangoe (News - Alert), to its prestigious list of 2019 Channel Chiefs for the second year in a row. The top IT channel leaders included on this list continually strive to drive growth and revenue in their organization through their channel partners.

Each of the 2019 Channel Chiefs has demonstrated exceptional leadership, vision and commitment to their channel partner programs. Channel Chief honorees are selected by CRN's editorial staff as a result of their professional achievements, standing in the industry, dedication to the channel partner community, and strategies for driving future growth and innovation.

Koch was selected as 2019 CRN Channel Chief based on his leadership skills, creativity, and impressive channel growth over the last year.

Over the last 12 months, he has worked to adapt Tangoe's large enterprise channel strategies by creating deal registration, partner pricing structures, and unique partner offers that significantly expanded the company's channel relationships and revenue pool. Koch was also the main architect behind the creation of a partner-dedicated portal which will expand to additional Tangoe partners in 2019. /p>
