Geek In Disguise

A candid admission from KT and one that is welcomed. We could have been accused in the pat of going ugly early and then changing (and confusing) customers and partners. No more....we're more careful and balanced about what we say and with good reason.

It's also great to see KT acknowledging the partner asset as being key to our success. They always have been and in this new era of Software + Services they will be again. We have some things to figure through but clearly Kevin believes in them

Asked if companies such as Google are a threat on the software plus services front, Turner answered by pointing to Microsoft's partner base.

"We are the company with the partner ecosystem," he said. "Those companies don't really have a partner ecosystem, not like the one we have. That ecosystem, sincerely, is how this company was built."

Rock on. You'll be hearing a lot more from me about this.
