September 21 may be most well-known as the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the start of spring in the Southern Hemisphere. But it’s also a day when people come together all around the world to show appreciation for one another, Mother Nature, and the other blessings that make life joyous and meaningful.

World Gratitude Day, first officially recognized by the United Nations and other organizations in 1977, is as much a celebration of others’ kindness, patience and support as it is their innovation, boldness and willingness to challenge us. If you’re grateful for the device you’re using to read this right now, then you’re grateful for the people who took the time to ideate, design, develop and deliver that device, too. If you’re grateful for your business’ success, then you’re grateful for your customers, partners and even adversaries. They all played a role in your journey to this point of gratitude.

Personally, I don’t believe we would be where we are without our partners. They provide Zebra with the reach, expertise and support needed to fully support our mutual customers all over the world. My team’s role is to enable partners to differentiate themselves in the market and support those customers.  Thank you to all our partners, we appreciate each and every one of you!!

So, today, Zebra Nation wants to show appreciation for everyone who has ever propelled us forward to this place of success and happiness by starting a chain of gratitude on social media.

Join us there to give a shoutout to everyone who has every uplifted you, challenged you, and been by your side in good times and in bad.

Just jump in on Zebra’s global chain of gratitude by visiting one or all our social channels today, tagging them in and adding the hashtag #PartnerAppreciation, #ThankYouPartners, #WorldGratitudeDay, #GratitudeDay.

They'll help you get things working perfectly. But should you try to find one partner who can “do it all”? Or is it better to assemble a team of experts to help you manage the IT/OT convergence and achieve your business objectives? Larry Walsh, CEO and Chief Analyst, Channelnomics, helps answer those questions.
