@josephleaser
Strategic partnerships and revenue enablement leader driving measurable growth.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior leader with 15+ years building and scaling sales and partner ecosystems, delivering more than $135M in revenue across partnerships, enablement, and sales. I focus on rapid diagnosis, practical execution, and coaching-led leadership to improve performance, engagement, and retention.
As Partner Success Manager for new products, I managed and expanded a $25M+ channel partner portfolio of 100+ domestic and international partners, owning the full partner lifecycle from recruitment through activation and co-selling. I drove consistent year-over-year growth, renewals, and expansions through sales training, objection handling, and discovery coaching for new product launches.
In prior roles I led turnarounds of underperforming teams and markets, grew regional and division revenues substantially (including scaling an ecosystem to $25M+ recurring revenue and growing a division from $32M to $70M), and held P&L accountability for a $65M regional portfolio. I have experience applying people-data SaaS tools, designing recognition programs tied to KPIs and OKRs, and executing high-complexity staffing and managed service programs.
I am known for improving leadership effectiveness and retention (achieving 96% direct-report retention), leveraging AI-enabled platforms and sales technology to boost partner engagement, and consistently converting underperformance into sustained growth and top-tier results.
