This month I get the great opportunity to present to the local Rocky Mountain chapter o
f SCIP. I am excited to share my experiences in high-tech including successes, fails and even yet to be solved challenges while managing competitive marketing for the silicon software leader, VMware, Inc.
I do not only plan to share my experiences, but rather share a practice in competitive marketing that has developed from both business necessity to learnings along the way from seasoned CI experts, including those from SCIP!
In the fast-paced nature of high-tech software, every day is a new day to learn along with new challenges to be solved. However, balancing resources with the needs of the business in a way that constantly proves value back to the business is at the center a successful competitive marketing practice. During this session, I will also share my experience with both communicating to management, but also measuring the success of our effort towards the overall goals of my business
