An elite subset of CRN's annual Women of the Channel list, the "Power 100" designation is awarded to the highest ranking women holding the most prominent channel-focused positions in a vendor or Solution Provider organization. These women have made a name for themselves as influential leaders within their own company, and the IT channel as a whole.
This year's Power 100 Women of the Channel were selected by the editors of CRN Magazine from a field of applications and nominations from vendor channel organizations, distributors and solution providers.
"Now in its 9th annual publication, CRN's special "Women of the Channel" issue is one of our most popular of the year," said Kelley Damore, VP, Editorial Director, UBM Channel. The "Power 100" designation is a special achievement award given to an elite subset of our Women of the Channel list. It's given to a small group of female executives based on their accomplishments over the past year, and their dedication to driving the overall success of the IT Channel. We want to honor and congratulate these women for their contributions to the industry and their respective organizations."
Barb Burk's wide range of accomplishments include unveiling the new BDR-G12 Backup and Disaster Recovery solution, rolling out VU TelePresence to the reseller community, launching Zenith Cloud Academy and Zenith's newest initiative, Technology Affiliates Network. Her accomplishments stretch to channel events initiating a partnership with CompTIA to educate partners and prospects, hosting a Cloud Summit with channel partners and conducting 'Cloud Check' shows in Southeast Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Outside of her normal work load, Burk also organized and served on a committee for donations to the Mars Home for Youth, a local community home for at-risk youth and families.
"We are quite proud to have Barb on our team. Her tireless energy has contributed in a very tangible way to our overarching success," says Rajeev Laghate, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Operations at Zenith Infotech, "We are anxious to see how she will top herself next."
