In an increasingly fast-paced world driven by financial and productivity metrics, how realistic is it to create a psychologically safe work environment for everyone while remaining focused on maintaining high standards and accountability? Could empathetic leadership be the answer for improved team dynamics and loyalty while simultaneously sustainably driving performance?

To help us maneuver the delicate balance between empathy and accountability, we have with us John Massey – the Head of Leadership & Professional Development at SAP Digital. With 30 years of sales and sales management experience, he believes in the power of connection, competition, and self-improvement. John is an avid learner with a Master’s in Transformation and ICF Coaching qualifications. He values giving back to the community, having raised over €100K for charities and leading various diversity initiatives at SAP.

Together, we’ll explore the role emotional intelligence plays in leadership and how it impacts team morale and productivity. John will share fascinating stories from his career, illustrating how empathetic leadership can solve complex problems. It’s going to be a thought-provoking conversation!

In his book, Good to Great, Jim Collins emphasized the importance of “who” over “what” – by stating that “those who build great organizations make sure they have the right people on the bus and the right people in the key seats before they figure out where to drive the bus”.

But in today’s rapidly evolving corporate culture, underscored by gig economy, great resignation, hybrid workplaces, how do organizations go about navigating the selective talent pool, in order to bring the right people to the right seats?

To shed a light on this very topic, I am joined by Frank Sofia. He is the Head of Executive Talent Attraction for the Americas, across all markets and lines of business. Prior to his current role, Frank served as the VP of Strategic Workforce Planning for North America Sales.

On August 21, 2019, Alexander Greb launched the very first episode of SAP Experts Podcast. And today marks the episode 111 of the podcast. We had to bring the original founder back for this special number episode!

Today, Alexander will share what it was like to launch a technology podcast, with a relatable, coffee-chat format back when it was still something niche in the SaaS world. We also discuss the three-legged-stool that SAP, our partners and our customers form while crossing the transformation chasm.

As Customer Advisory Lead and renowned Tech Evangelist, Alexander has collected vast experience in customer centric strategy implementation, processes, and technology at SAP and several leading business consulting companies for the past two decades. Having implemented digital transformation programs with strategic customers from the shop floor up to C-Level has helped him to gain in-depth knowledge of Best Practices that help customers gain “the unfair competitive advantage”.

Being the author of several publications in Digitalist Magazine and Forbes as well as keynote speaker at global conferences and events such as SAPPHIRE, have made him a sought after Thought Leader and Trusted Advisor for many of SAP’s customers. At Westernacher Consulting he is responsible for sharpening Westernacher’s profile as value-driven “To-Go SAP-Consulting and Implementation Partner” for customers that are not satisfied by approaching their Digitalization Initiative as a Lean Migration but want to put the horsepower of Digitalization and SAPs next-gen ERP fully to the street to become Digital Champions.

“SAP S/4HANA is the biggest transformation project in our 110 years company history” – a quote that describes the significance of the change in the company of my today’s guest.

Michael Hilzinger joined me and gave insights on his approach to transform to SAP S/4 HANA. Michael is CIO at the German manufacturer Knorr-Bremse. 110 years ago, they drastically improved the safety of trains by providing brakes and removing the so called “brake vans”, a manually operated braking system.

We spoke about the analogy from back then with a modern SAP S/4HANA system, the role and factors of change management in such a huge transformation and why it’s helpful to improve incrementally instead of a big bang move.

So, if you are interested in firsthand customer insights and perspectives, this episode is made for you. Grab your coffee and tune in.

My name is Timo Deiner, welcome to the SAP Experts Podcast.

From our very first memories, stories surround us, inspire us and enthrall us. The stories that we hear and the stories that we tell, define us. But can storytelling be a tool in Value Selling, packaging the customer’s desired goals, the art of the possible, and the value of digital transformation – all with a neat little bow?

To answer this, I am joined by Eric Carinp, the Chief Storyteller at SAP Executive Advisory & Architecture.

 In his 18 years at SAP, Eric has been a strategic leader supporting sales pursuits across every Industry. During this time, he has seen the evolution of business and the demands for reinvention that companies are facing today.

As Chief Storyteller, Film Producer, and Director – Eric’s focus is helping others create the most compelling story possible while showing you how to deliver stories that make a difference. Some of his most recent projects include Levi Strauss, Disney, Amgen, Warner Media, T-Mobile, Zoom, Starbucks and U.S. Department of Defense to name a few.

This past month Eric was a featured speaker at 2022 NA Customer Success Summit and has also shared his methods with Global teams, including HXM and Concur Sales, Presales and Solution Architects. 

Outside of SAP, Eric was recently an invited guest speaker at BYU University Law School and just concluded an interview for a national podcast: “Storytelling for Executives”.

Imagine an endless array of three-dimensional experiences, all merged into one shared, persistent and immersive Virtual Universe – the Metaverse. Is it another fad or the next big thing? Well, either way, buckle up, because in this episode of SAP Experts Podcast, we are off to explore the Metaverse!

Which is why, my guest today is Karl Doose, a speaker and thought leader in the Metaverse space: explaining what it is, exploring its impact and supporting people in understanding how they can participate. He is very enthusiastic about the potential of the Metaverse, as it is closely overlapping with his passions for the entertainment industry as well as web3.

Karl has been with SAP for almost 7 years, having joined via the German Vocational Training Program in 2015. Since then, he became one of the key people to grow SAP’s Innovation Services and Solutions capability, applying intelligent technologies such as Distributed Ledgers or Artificial Intelligence to solve our customers business problems. Subsequently, he built a future-focused strategy for SAP Services to better support our customers on their journey to the cloud and was a catalyst for its execution.

Currently as an executive advisor to leaders within the company, Karl is helping COOs to transform their role into a future-focused Chief Anticipation Officer.

As always, my name Akshi Mohla, and you’re listening to SAP Experts Podcast.

Host: Timo Deiner – Director, Cloud Transformation and Architecture

A fresh coffee and a new guest: welcome to the SAP Experts Podcast! Today I am in conversation with my manager, Johannes Langguth. He is Vice President in the Cloud Transformation and Architecture Office in the MEE region at SAP. And we discuss if bringing business onboard is always required for transformation in a company? Should enterprise IT be reactive or is it easier to be proactive?

What if IT becomes an internal platform provider and turns from a cost center to a profit center? What are possible starting points for a transformation? Is an MVP which solves one specific challenge a good start to gain trust? Or is a “top down” approach by modernizing the whole IT landscape a first step to jumpstart transformation more from a strategic perspective?

Lots of questions – and you will find the answers in this episode. My name is Timo Deiner and you are listening to SAP Experts Podcast.

Hello and welcome to another episode of the SAP Experts Podcast. Today, we discuss the bold statement “If your muscles don’t ache, it wasn’t transformation”.

The time of buzzwords is over, this episode is all about real challenges. We explore the importance of improving step by step, instead of going for the world championship when you have never even attended a tournament before.

My todays guest is Bernd Preuschoff, the Group CDO at Uvex, CEO at protecting people GmbH. He is a passionate keynote speaker, book author and a very successful professional dancer.  We talked on sustainable innovation, analogies of dancing sports and business and about the collaboration with talents and their expectations towards “digital transformation”.

My name is Timo Deiner working in the Cloud Transformation and Architecture Office at SAP, enjoying good coffee and I’m excited to have Bernd as my guest today.

In this next edition of the SAP EXPERTS Podcast, Jonathan Fogarty asks the question that seems to be on everybody’s mind at the moment:

Is the “Great Resignation” real? Is it just a new name for an old phenomenon? What should organisations do to prepare, or have I already missed the boat? Helping him make sense of it all are his guests and experienced Podcast hosts in their own right:

Michael Esau – A Global HR Advisor who has spent the last 20 years helping individuals and organisations be the best they could be every day, and

Hannah Brier a Customer Engagement Executive helping drive customers success throughout their cloud transformation.

Strap in, listen up and perhaps you might get the answer you are hoping for!

It is an immutable law in business that words are words, explanations are explanations, promises are promises – but only performance is reality. This quote by Harold Geneen rings especially true for sports teams as well, wherein the goal is to win.

But what role does a deeper understanding and data around your own team players, as well as the competitors, help in securing the wins? And what can other industries learn from the Sports industry. Since Superbowl was only last night, it is only fair for us to dive into the agile world of Sports Analytics!

My guest today, Bernhard Escherich is an SAP industry expert, with more than 20 years of experience with SAP. He was part of the SAP Sports Industry Business Unit when it began in 2015 until 2020.

He is now the Chief Expert at SAP’s New Business and Industry Strategy team, covering all industries, and helps implement new innovations and business models for SAP’s customers. He is passionate about bringing insights and best practices from elite sports teams and SAP sport solutions to all industries, to enable healthier working environments and lifestyles. He was a water polo player in his youth, and you can still find him at the pool every morning at 6.30am.

Bernhard and I will be discussing topics from a latest SAP whitepaper on Sports Analytics, which I have included in the shownotes, so that you too can keep the Superbowl celebrations going with this deeper dive into everything Sports Analytics!

An extra special welcome to the 100^th episode of the SAP Experts Podcast! Thank you for being a part of this journey. As we complete our century, we at SAP Experts Podcast are compelled to ponder what the future of work would look like.

She has a passion for diversity and creating equally distributed access to opportunity. She is an angel investor with Pipeline Angels group, a group of female and non-binary investors who invest in female and non-binary founders. She is a scout for GoingVC Partners, a Venture Capital syndicate and she is on the selection committee and a mentor for entrepreneurs as a volunteer for Defy Ventures, a non-profit organization that invests in founders who are currently or formerly incarcerated.

“Put your money where your mouth is” may be an old adage. But as we Chase Zero together – a future with zero emissions, zero waste, and zero inequality – the finance industry is increasingly implementing this very adage.

The financial industry recognizes the need for sustainable economic activities, and SAP is here to help.

My guest, Michel Haesendonckx brings the best of both worlds, with 20 years of experience in the area of financial processes and analytics, as well as his focus on sustainable finance.

Michel is Global Solution Owner for Financial Planning & Analysis at SAP with a broad expertise in Finance & Performance Management. He is responsible for driving the go-to-market in this area for SAP and is highly involved in key innovation topics and the overall solution strategy.

At one point, Maintenance and Asset Management may have been viewed as just another cost center within a company. However, today’s customers seek to maintain and maximize the health and performance of their assets via intelligent technologies – such as IoT, machine learning, mobility, as well as advanced and predictive analytics.

Which is why today I’m joined by none other than the innovative Jasper Luickx. Joining us today from Belgium, Jasper is a digital supply chain solution advisor, with a focus on SAP’s asset maintenance and service portfolio.

During his master’s in Management & IT, Jasper interned at a startup in New York as well as SAP. Soon after he joined the SAP Presales Academy, where he was felicitated as the most innovative associate of his cohort. He has been a solution advisor ever since.

1. Lars Elmquist – Global Presales Procurement Hub Lead, SAP Intelligent Spend Management
2. Cyril Rathogwa – Sr. Solution Advisor, SAP Intelligent Spend Management

Host: Akshi Mohla – Senior Business Development Specialist, SAP S/4HANA Solution Management and GTM

There are some studies which claim that the human attention span continues to decrease and might be as low as 8 seconds – that’s lower than a goldfish. While there are other studies which claim that humans were always cognitively distracted and hyper-alert creatures, which enabled us to accomplish complex tasks while still being aware of our surroundings.

Well, either way, one thing is true – the sheer amount of information around us is increasing, and as a result, we are always competing for the attention of our audiences. How do we create an enthralling enough experience, that could capture an audience for 10 mins, 30 mins, 2 hours?  

Which is why, today, I am joined by two individuals who have mastered the art of creating compelling customer engagements – Cyril Rathogwa and Lars Elmquist!

My guest, Cyril, is a passionate football enthusiast and storyteller. He is a senior solutions adviser in the Intelligent Spend Business Network covering the entire Africa continent.

Cyril has over 15 years procurement experience in different industries. His experience includes consulting, procurement process re-engineering and advising clients in public, retail and financial sectors.

He also brings a vast amount of implementation experience of sourcing, contract management, procurement and inventory management systems, and has led support teams responsible for supporting and providing thought leadership for procurement applications.

Because of his vast knowledge in the procurement areas, Cyril often speaks on wide ranging procurement topics on various public forums.

My guest, Lars, began his SAP journey in 2015, and since the last 3 1/2 year has been the  Global Solution Hub Lead for the Procurement Line of Business. His role is an amalgamation of Community Leadership, Content Management, Corporate Programs & Knowledge Sharing.

Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, Lars is an expert of visual best practices. He uses visuals both in relation to his work, including internal and external presentations, and also privately, in his photography, sketching and whiteboards

Host: Akshi Mohla – Senior Business Development Specialist, SAP S/4HANA Solution Management and GTM

Rise with SAP enables you to transform your business, holistically, on-your-terms and on-your-timeline. You can design the strategy that’s right for you, while SAP and partners, join forces, to provide you a guided transformational journey.

Which is why, I am very excited to welcome Enrico Schuch to our podcast today, as he is a pro at explaining “Rise with SAP” in simple terms, with easy-to-understand practical use cases.

Enrico is a home-grown SAP talent and began his SAP career as a working student. SAP recognized his talents and passion for sales and offered him a role in S/4HANA Specialized Sales.

In parallel, he pursued a full-time master’s program in supply chain and logistics, while also working full-time and completed the program as the best student of his class.

Since then, Enrico worked his way up to the RISE with SAP demand generation lead for Middle and Eastern Europe with a dedicated focus on the midmarket. And in a full-circle moment, Enrico currently leads a team of 15 working students.

Remembrance Day, also known as Veterans Day here in the US, is on November 11.

This episode of SAP Experts Podcast is a full-circle moment for me. That’s because the very first episode I ever hosted, by myself, for SAP Experts Podcast was about gamified approaches being a game changer in business consulting and learning. In that episode, I discussed how SAP uses gamification to collaborate with our customers, while enabling Business Value Identification.

And in today’s episode, we revisit that topic, but this time we take the leap from theoretical to practical. Today we will talk about how the SAP S/4HANA Virtual Board Game simplifies the solution discovery, as well as the business value identification for our current customers and prospective customers. And not just that, but this gamified approach also provides useful, tangible outcomes to the players. 

Which is why, today, I am joined by the brains behind this gamified approach, Saurabh Choudhuri.

Saurabh has over 13 years of Sales, Presales, Consulting & Agile Coaching experience in the IT industry, across various global firms.  Saurabh joined SAP in 2011 as a “Management Intern” and during his tenure, has worked on many key customer facing projects like SAP ByDesign product launch, Ariba Sales and today, Saurabh is part of the SAP S/4HANA Go-To-Market & Solution Management, as the Sr. Global Director leading the Gamified SAP Value Discovery Experience track.

Saurabh also has an entrepreneurial spirit and has cofounded 2 .COM companies. He has an MBA from Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore and executive management diploma in Leadership & Strategy from Harvard Business School. On a personal note, Saurabh enjoys spending time with his 2 little girls & wife and trying local cuisines while travelling.

We are also joined by two returning guests Bill Bowers and Nabeel Siddiqui. Because a radical, innovative approaches like this one require leadership and teamwork to become a reality, which is what Bill, Nabeel and yours truly, provided.

As always, my name Akshi Mohla, and you’re listening to SAP Experts Podcast.

What are you thinking about when you hear SAP and startups? David vs Goliath? Nokia vs Apple – and who has the role of Nokia in this comparison? Or is it a perfect match? Startups have great -mostly purpose driven- ideas to make the world better and SAP’s mission is to help the world run better. Does an early-stage startup need SAP S/4HANA or any other SAP solution to reach its next level? We think yes. And we have a dedicated team at SAP which helps startups, so called hypergrowth startups, to boost their company together with SAP. My today’s guest is Jan Gutknecht, he is Co-Founder of the SAP Hypergrowth Engagement and we are talking about four pillars on startup engagements: language, speed, challenges and cultures.

In a relay race, passing the baton properly from one player to the other, is just as important as the speed of the individual runners. Make an improper pass, and you get disqualified.

Similarly, our customer’s transformational journey, is enabled by specialists, both internal and partners, and relies on effective communication, comprehensive handover and seamless collaboration. Between SAP, partners and the customers, every step of the way. To illustrate this very point, I have not one, but 2 very special guests that represent 2 distinct point in the customer’s transformation journey – the Filus brothers – Steve and Mark Filus.  

As always, my name Akshi Mohla, and I am a Senior Business Development Specialist at SAP S/4HANA Solution Management and Go-to-market; and you’re listening to SAP Experts Podcast.

Steve is a loving husband and proud father of 2 and holds a bachelor’s degree in IT from the University of South Florida.​

His brother, Mark Filus, is thought leader on streamlining business processes and simplification​, with over 8 years of Management Consulting experience.

Today we’re talking about a topic that is very dear to my heart: Sustainability. Not least the extreme weather events that have taken place in the recent weeks – the wildfires in the USA, or the floods in Germany and China – have highlighted that the case for sustainability shouldn’t be negotiable anymore. The need for drastic and swift change is chrystal clear.

I am talking to Bettina Zedlitz today, she is the Senior Director for Sustainability and Climate 21 Go-to-Market and Solution Management in the SAP S/4HANA organization. As such she has the overview over all the sustainability-related activities happening at SAP. We talk about why sustainability needs to be taken seriously by businesses, how SAP supports enterprises in doing their part in reducing their environmental footprint, but also how we ourselves are integrating sustainability in our own lives.

Storytelling is an intrinsic part of the human experience, dating back thousands of years. Much of history as we know it is due largely to stories being passed down through generations. There is nothing quite as compelling as a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. So how does this translate to the presentation space?

We will learn in today’s “storytelling special” episode of SAP Experts Podcast.

As always, my name Akshi Mohla, and I am a Senior Business Development Specialist at SAP S/4HANA Solution Management and Go-to-market; and you’re listening to SAP Experts Podcast.

My guest today is none other than, the Chief Storyteller himself – James Marland. James is a Global Vice President in the Centre of Excellence for Procurement at SAP. After being first exposed to procurement as a consultant at SAP he moved to the newly formed Ariba in 1998. With the acquisition of Ariba in 2012, he ended up back at SAP as a Vice-President of Network Strategy, uniquely with experience of procurement from both companies. In his current role he meets with procurement professionals to work with them on building the business case for SAP solutions. With the unofficial title of “Chief Storyteller” he tries to make a storyteller out of everyone through Social Media, new hire onboarding and mentoring. You’ll see him passionately preaching the procurement story of SAP to each new hire through his preferred medium of a whiteboard. He also contributes to the SAP story on social media, blogs and at events. Just don’t expect to see him using PowerPoint!
