The Cloud Marketplace of the Future

The importance of training and education for channel partners to reach their full potential is the bedrock of business practices. Now, expert coaching from Pax8 offers solution providers an even more focused way to achieve excellence through 1:1 training and education.

The Pax8 Academy coaching program helps partners grow stronger in four key areas: value creation, operations, sales, and security. It’s one of the many key benefits of the Pax8 Voyager Alliance partner program.

The Momentum Behind Coaching is Real

A recent study, Executive Coaching and Leadership Development Market Size and Share Analysis: Growth Trends and Forecast 2025 to 2030, estimates the global market at $104 billion—projected to reach $161 billion by 2030. Financial leaders surveyed said companies that integrate structured coaching outperform peers by 25 percent. That’s a meaningful edge.

Coaching—like support via Pax8’s Results Selling Framework, mission briefings, Managed Intelligence model, and training and education—is a differentiator for partners.

An Effective, Five-Phase Framework

Through Pax8 Academy, partners gain access to four coaching tracks—each offered one-on-one with seasoned industry experts through the Voyager Alliance Program. Every engagement follows a five-phase framework—Understand, Document, Train, Implement, and Inspect—that turns strategy into sustained business transformation.

• Value Creation Coaching: Builds long-term business value through strategy, operational improvements, growth planning, and financial optimization.
• Operations Coaching: Strengthens service delivery, leadership, and organizational health to drive operational excellence.

• Sales Coaching: Sharpens sales strategy, prospecting, and execution through the Results Selling Framework and team leadership development.

• Security Coaching: Guides partners in building profitable, well-structured security practices with the right frameworks and go-to-market plans.

For example, with Operations Coaching, Pax8 works with partners to improve how their businesses run. It focuses on five areas: service delivery, operational practices, leadership development, organizational health, and business growth. The goal is to help partners “aim for excellence and level up every area” of operations by strengthening internal systems, building strong leadership habits, and creating a healthier, more scalable organization that drives long-term growth.

Building Skills To Execute

Each phase in the Pax8 Coaching multi-phase model builds upon the last. It starts with understanding a partner’s current state, then documenting tailored strategies. Training equips teams with the skills to execute; implementation drives real-time change; and inspection ensures measurable improvement and accountability.

The results speak for themselves. According to Service Leadership benchmarking data, Pax8 Academy Coaching Partners achieved an average EBITDA of 13.6 percent—well above the ITSP industry average of 9.9 percent—and boosted EBITDA dollars by 19 percent year-over-year.

Through this structured, human-driven approach, Pax8 continues to help partners turn insights into impact—and performance into lasting growth.
