107 – One Leader’s Focus, Taking Partnerships to the Next Level at Google.

Here’s a bold statement: if you’re a technology leader, I believe you won’t want to miss this 107th Episode of Ultimate Guide to Partnering. My guest is Eric Rosenkranz, Google’s Senior Partnership Leader for North America. Eric was an early guest, Episode 20. Google has been on a fast track since that interview. I was delighted to welcome Eric back to discuss one leader’s focus, taking partnerships to the next level at Google.


Eric Rosenkranz serves as the Executive Channel and Partner Engineering Leader on Google’s North America Senior Leadership Team. As the senior Americas leader on the Global Channels leadership team, he leads a multibillion-dollar operation that has achieved exponential growth multiple times since joining in 2016. Eric also Chairs the North American Partner Governance Council and North America Partner Advisory council at Google.

Google has made significant investments since my last interview with Eric back in 2017. I invited Eric back to learn more about how the partner business has evolved, one leader’s focus on taking partnerships to the next level, and why customers and partners choose Google. We also have a great discussion on work, life, and career.


Suppose you want to learn more about how analysts and customers differentiate Google’s Cloud offerings, investments Google is making in its partner business, why partners and customers choose Google, and one leader’s thoughts on team leadership, career, and mindfulness. In that case, you’ll not want to miss this episode.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How the market differentiates Google’s Cloud offerings.
  • Investments Google has made in its partner business.
  • How Google’s Customer Obsession translates to partnerships.
  • Thoughts on Team Leadership and Mindfulness.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed spending time with my friend Eric Rosenkranz.
