when I started in SAP consulting 12 years ago, I was struck by the rigidity in the community. While I met a few seasoned folks who were open, most were:- conventional and hierarchical in their approach and thinking.- had a sense of entitlement based on their years of experience.- prioritised the comfort zone and resisted change, when it comes to learning and taking up new projects.My attempt has always been to dismantle those status quo and it is still a work in progress. Whenever I interact with younger consultants, my suggestion has always been to choose challenges consciously. Move out from assignments that limit your growth, move to different cities or countries if the opportunity is worth the effort and remain respectful to each and everyone irrespective of their age or seniority. #sap #sapcareer #sapconsulting #consulting #saplearning #career #careergrowth #sapcommunity #sapcobsultant

SAP career, like many other professions, has its own set of challenges and rewards. Typically, what's often shown/seen doesn't reflect the reality. For instance, a picture like this (taken on a weekend) shows completely different lifestyle than it actually is. What say?#sapcommunity #sapcareer #weekendvibes

Is SAP a relevant partner for you to discuss #digitaltransformation in your industry? I would claim: "Yes!"Here are some great reasons ”why” by Sean Patrick O'Brien.

This week marks two years since I started at SAP and I couldn’t be more grateful I took a leap of faith by making the move. I had been at my previous company for 5 years, loved my coworkers, had a fantastic manager, and was exceeding quota. But- I was ready for something new. I’ve always wanted to partner with, strategize with, and challenge some of the largest organizations in the country to shape their business. On paper, I didn’t feel qualified. I lacked experience and knew there would be a huge learning curve that would be uncomfortable to overcome. Despite this, I was determined to succeed, and so I pushed myself outside my comfort zone while getting acclimated. A few things I’ve learned throughout the process…1. Ask the “dumb” questions- nobody is judging you. 2. It’s okay to not know the answer. People respect transparency and would rather you admit not knowing and coming back to them once you do. 3. Stop associating being young in your field as a negative. I spent too long feeling inferior being the youngest in a room- when in reality, people appreciate a different perspective. You’re in the room for a reason- speak up!4. Don’t be scared to reach out to someone (internally or externally) because of their title- we’re all just people. 5. Your time is valuable. Prioritize what’s important and say no to what isn’t. Thank you Kevin Moore for telling me this early on. ☺️6. Work is MUCH more fun when you’re genuinely friends with your coworkers and customers. This makes going to the office, business trips, and everything in between something to look forward to. Thank you SAP SuccessFactors for the opportunity. Looking forward to continuing to grow here for many years to come!
