This annual list recognizes the top vendor executives who continually demonstrate exemplary leadership, influence, innovation, and growth for the IT channel. CRN’s 2020 Channel Chiefs list honors the distinguished leaders who have influenced the IT channel with cutting-edge strategies and partnerships.
For the second year in a row, Mann was selected as one of the Most Influential Channel Chiefs for his leadership within the Scale Computing Partner Community, and expanding the company’s partner base by nearly doubling partner numbers and increasing quantity of customers in 2019. Mann has continuously sought ways to improve the Scale Computing MSP program, while increasing revenue per partner along with average selling price per partner. In addition, Mann served as a key player in launching Scale Computing’s new Partner Portal, a key factor to driving more engagement and higher revenue per partner.
“The IT channel is undergoing constant evolution to meet customer demands and changing business environments,” said Bob Skelley, CEO of The Channel Company. “CRN’s Channel Chiefs work tirelessly, leading the industry forward through superior partner programs and strategies with a focus on helping solution providers transform and grow.

Scale Computing also won all subcategories for both categories including: Product Innovation, Support, Partnership and Managed/Cloud Services.
“Scott has had a major impact in the Scale Computing Partner Community and our MSP program, and deserves this recognition as a ‘Most Influential Channel Chief’ for the second consecutive year.
