Movements in SAP HQ

Given that I'm involved in SAP, I thought I'll share with you all some changes that have taken place at the  SAP HQ very recently.

If you haven't already read about it, the head of product development Vishal Sikka very recently moved out in a move that is being deemed as "all too sudden". He was the champion of Hana, the in-memory computing platform that SAP is working on with head over heels right now.

Shawn Price, SAP's cloud software sales chief has moved away as well, though it was a short gig since he, this is another high profile movement within SAP HQ.

The final one is something that is likely to come by soon, where the Co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe will be stepping down leaving Bill McDermott as the sole CEO of SAP.


People move in and out of organization that is nothing new, but it doesn't hurt to know what's going on in terms of the executive players moving around in the ERP world.
