But the real question is, why haven't all these problems been solved yet? When the same issues, like channel conflict, partner enablement and channel scalability are listed again and again as the top issues facing channel chiefs, what's stopping us from solving them? Charlene suggests that the fluidity of the channel prevents us ever truly solving the problems because it's always a moving target. Listen as she and Diane debate the issue and check out blog in the coming weeks for a further breakdown of our recent roundtable. | [![Charlene-O'Hanlon-headshot](https://www.partner-path.com/hs-fs/hub/361854/file-4070984746-jpg/blog-files/charlene-ohanlon-120.jpg?width=120&height=154&name=charlene-ohanlon-120.jpg "Charlene-O'Hanlon-headshot")](https://www.linkedin.com/in/charleneohanlon) | [![Diane Krakora headshot](https://www.partner-path.com/hs-fs/file-4070984966-jpg/blog-files/diane-krakora.jpg?width=120&name=diane-krakora.jpg "Diane Krakora headshot")](https://www.partner-path.com/about/team/diane/) | | --- | --- | | **Charlene O'Hanlon, ***Editor & Writer* | **Diane Krakora, ***CEO* at **PartnerPath** | **What do you think?
