Houssiere and Kimberly Jaecksch recognized by CRN for their
leadership in the channel
FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), the intelligence-led security
company, announced today that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company,
has named FireEye employees Karen Kukoda, Kristi Houssiere and
Kimberly Jaecksch to its prestigious 2019 Women of the Channel
list. The leaders on this annual listing are from all areas of the
IT channel ecosystem; representing technology suppliers,
distributors, solution providers, and other IT organizations. Each
is recognized for their contributions to channel advocacy, channel
growth and visionary leadership.
CRN editors chose the list from a multitude of channel
leadership applicants and selected the final honorees based on
their professional accomplishments, demonstrated expertise, and
ongoing dedication to the IT channel.
Karen Kukoda is Senior Director of Cyber Risk Partners at
FireEye. She is responsible for driving the channel agenda for the
company in the risk management, legal, and insurance marketplaces.
After being named on the Women of the Channel list in previous
years, Kukoda was again selected in 2019 for the work she has done
to develop partnerships in these marketplaces. She has managed them
from inception and consequently created opportunities for FireEye
sales teams and their partners.
Kristi Houssiere is Senior Director of National Sales at
FireEye. She has been included on CRN’s Women of the Channel and
Power 100 lists several times as well as being named one of CRN’s
2019 Channel Chiefs for her contribution to the growth of the
FireEye Partner Program. Her latest recognition came from the work
she has done to restructure the company’s Partner Rebate Program
and develop strategic go-to-market programs that tie in with
segments of the FireEye channel ecosystem.
Kimberly Jaecksch is Account Manager, Federal Distribution at
FireEye. She was nominated for Women of the Channel by Carahsoft, a
FireEye partner with whom she works with closely. Part of the
reason for Jaecksch being put forward was because she identified
Carahsoft’s need for additional technical expertise to help sell
the FireEye portfolio of solutions. She successfully placed a
technical expert with the partner and both FireEye and Carahsoft
have benefitted as a result.
“I couldn’t be more proud of having these members of our channel
team being recognized by CRN for the brilliant work they have been
doing,” said Bill Robbins, EVP of Worldwide Sales at FireEye. “Over
the past couple of years our channel program has evolved a great
deal as we look to offer partners the best possible experience when
they work with us. Kristi, Karen and Kimberly’s inputs have been
crucial to this process. Their leadership and deep understanding of
partner needs helps ensure that we are offering a high standard of
security for our customers.”
“CRN’s 2019 Women of the Channel list honors influential leaders
who are accelerating channel growth through mutually-beneficial
partnerships, incredible leadership, strategic vision, and unique
contributions in their field,” said Bob Skelley, CEO of The Channel
Company. “This accomplished group of leaders is driving channel
success and we are proud to honor their achievements.”
The 2019 Women of the Channel list will be featured in the June
issue of CRN Magazine and online at www.CRN.com/WOTC.
