How Collaboration Fuels Growth.

Meet Jackie Connor, part of Global Brand and Content Marketing at Ingram Micro in the United States. Her journey started with a story. While working at a university, Jackie interviewed an entrepreneur who had previously worked at Ingram Micro and spoke highly of its culture and growth. That conversation led Jackie to look closer, and she found a place where support, learning, and teamwork are part of the day to day. As she puts it, Ingram Micro has “amazing culture and opportunities for growth,” along with “programs that support advancing education” that helped her complete her master’s degree. 

Finding a Place Where Stories Matter 

Jackie joined Ingram Micro 3.5 years ago, inspired by real experiences that reflected a people first culture. She was drawn to the chance to keep learning, contribute to meaningful projects, and work with teams that care about shared success. Today, she helps elevate the stories of Ingram Micro and its customers around the world, bringing clarity and heart to complex topics. 

“It’s exciting to help tell our story in a clear and creative way, especially when it may inspire customers to bring more innovative tech solutions to market. Taking complex messaging and turning it into content that really resonates with our audiences is what makes me feel like I’m genuinely contributing to moving our mission forward.” 

Through this work, Jackie connects individual voices to a broader purpose, showing how storytelling can inform, inspire, and move ideas forward across markets. 

Motivation Through Connection and Continuous Learning 

For Jackie, motivation is grounded in teamwork, open dialogue, and growth. She values a space where ideas are shared, different perspectives are welcomed, and learning is constant. 

“I’m genuinely motivated by the opportunity to connect and collaborate with my coworkers. I love being part of a team where ideas can be shared openly and where we can build on each other’s strengths. It’s especially energizing to see how projects and strategies evolve over time, being involved in that creative process keeps me engaged and inspired. Working across different teams to develop new and innovative messaging strategies and tactics is something I really enjoy. Every collaboration brings a fresh perspective, and I learn a lot from the people around me, including my coworkers, managers, and partners across the organization. That continuous learning and teamwork is what makes me excited to show up every day.” 

Her experience reflects a learning culture where development is encouraged, voices are heard, and collaboration shapes outcomes. 

Crafting Impact at Global Scale 

As part of the Global Brand and Content Marketing team, Jackie helps bring forward the most compelling stories about Ingram Micro and its customers, and how together they make technology more accessible. These stories are shared across channel media and internal marketing, supporting teams who are innovating and delivering for customers worldwide. In this environment, Jackie builds bridges across functions, translating complex ideas into clear content that supports business goals and helps colleagues do their best work. 

Her focus on clarity and creativity supports Ingram Micro’s broad reach and mission. Every project is an opportunity to connect teams, align messages, and move ideas into action. 

A Message to Future Teammates 

“Network! Be open to learning new projects and skills. Your own talents and hobbies outside of work can provide a helpful and creative way to tackle new projects that ultimately support your team, coworkers and the business. It’s all about perspective.  

My dad used to say, ‘Your attitude is your altitude.’” 

Jackie looks ahead with optimism, excited to keep learning, collaborating, and telling stories that help people, teams, and customers move forward together.
