“Corinne demonstrates customer centricity and coaching skills that are the hallmark of direct sales and sales management success. I watched with interest as Corinne stepped into the channel world at Microsoft and was promoted to successfully run the Canadian Channel for several years. When it comes to customer pursuit Corinne is a triple threat with a history of success in direct and indirect sales coupled with a deep understanding of marketing both in a traditional format and in disruptive new digital alternatives.”

“Corinne Sharp is someone I have always admired for her leadership qualities and management style. She is one of the smartest sales & marketing professionals in the Canadian IT channel. Her methodological approach to Sales & Marketing helped two partners I worked for achieve double digit year-over-year growth. Corinne is a natural leader who inspires and motivates people who work for her, as well as her clients. I have learned a lot from Corinne over the last 5 years, and have become a better business professional as a result.”

“Corinne has been a pleasure to work with as she led Microsoft’s relationships with the Canadian partner channel. An enthusiastic person who builds teams and relationships both within her organization and in the larger ecosystem.

“When Sharp Perspective led us thru the Ideal Partner Criteria exercise, it provided insight against our existing partners who are most likely to execute and engage. And equally important, who is not and why. We even put ourselves through the exercise to test how we would be rated against our own criteria that we were expecting of others. By having my CFO, Director of Product and Delivery participate along with me, we were able to create a rating system for our partner criteria that will now help us focus on the right partners to scale our business globally.”
