Partner Development Manager
Thank you
Mmk2118 I understand that if a partner is a managed partner then a PDM is assigned to that partner. What if a partner is not a managed partner? Is there still a PDM assigned?

Marcia_Craveiro, I am looking for my PDM, I dont believe we have a dedicated one so how do I reach out to him/her?
Thank you

Hello charlesakkerman, I understand you are trying to find out if you have a PDM assigned.
Not all Microsoft partners are managed partners. If a partner is managed, Microsoft will initiate contact and set objectives and partnership goals for the fiscal year, which begins in July. If Microsoft has not reached out to you, it is unlikely that you have a PDM assigned.
For unmanaged partners, several online resources are available, such as information repositories, document collections, and community calls. If you are not aware of these, I recommend starting with the Microsoft Partner website (Especially the partnership menu) and the Microsoft Partner Announcements.
If you are a Direct Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) seeking technical advisory to support your business growth in the cloud, you might consider Microsoft's partner support plans, such as Advanced Support for Partners. Note these support plans primarily assist with technical enablement rather than programmatic aspects like the Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program or Licensing programs.
I hope this information helped.
