  • Episode 328: Community, M&A, and Growth from Beyond 26
    Jun 26 2026
    LIVE from Beyond 26 by Pax8 in Salt Lake City, Utah, this special edition explores a powerful reality shaping the future of the technology channel: growth happens when strong leadership, thriving communities, and strategic business transformation converge. Reed Goddard, M&A Advisor with Evergreen Services Group and Nancy Hammervik, Chief Channel Officer of the Global Technology Industry Association (GTIA), join us to examine two critical forces driving the industry forward. Reed provides an insider's perspective on MSP mergers and acquisitions, discussing valuation drivers, industry consolidation, and how business owners can build lasting enterprise value. Nancy shares her vision for strengthening the global technology ecosystem through community, leadership cultivation, and establishing industry standards. Together, these discussions reveal that whether you're scaling through acquisition, building a technology community, or preparing the next generation of leaders, success ultimately depends on people, trust, relationships, and a commitment to continuous growth. Highlights: Leadership journeys matter — Reed shares his path from PwC to Evergreen Services Group, while Nancy reflects on her journey including discovering technology during her time at the University of Delaware. MSP consolidation continues to accelerate as recurring revenue, cybersecurity demand, cloud services, and emerging AI opportunities make managed service providers attractive acquisition targets. Building enterprise value starts with fundamentals; MSP owners should focus on operational excellence, customer proximity, understanding client needs, and creating scalable growth strategies. "Tech is a people job." Nancy emphasizes that despite rapid technological change, relationships, collaboration, and leadership remain the industry's greatest competitive advantages. Community remains a critical differentiator in the AI era. GTIA continues to help technology professionals connect, learn best practices, and accelerate growth through global collaboration. Industry standards and professionalism continue to evolve, with GTIA collaborating alongside organizations such as Pax8 and Texas A&M to help advance best practices across the technology services industry. Upcoming Evergreen Elevate events in London and Melbourne.

  • Episode 327: Leadership, Community, and Human Risk
    Jun 24 2026
    The future belongs to organizations that invest in people as much as they invest in technology. Whether building stronger communities, developing emerging leaders, or reducing human cyber risk, lasting success comes from creating environments where individuals are informed, connected, engaged, and empowered to contribute at their highest level. Recorded live at the Beyond 26 Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, this special episode brings together two dynamic technology leaders who are helping shape the future of the IT channel from very different—but equally important—perspectives. Brook Lee, Senior Director of Community at Rev.io, and Nihil Morjaria, Chief Revenue Officer at usecure, share insights on leadership, community building, cybersecurity, and the evolving role of human behavior in technology. Brook discusses the power of authentic relationships, meaningful conversations, and creating communities where MSPs can learn and grow together. Nihil explores why Human Risk Intelligence is becoming a critical pillar of modern cybersecurity as AI-driven threats increasingly target people rather than systems. Together, their perspectives reveal a common theme: technology alone does not drive success—people do. Highlights include: People remain the most important factor in business growth, innovation, and cybersecurity. The "secret sauce" behind meaningful engagement: listen more, talk less, and create genuine connections. How Rev.io is helping MSPs strengthen operations and community collaboration. What Human Risk Intelligence means and why it is transforming cybersecurity strategies How AI is changing both business opportunities and cyber threats. Why security awareness programs should focus on culture, behavior, and proactive participation. The growing importance of measuring human risk posture and organizational resilience.
