Pros

My time at SAP was incredibly rewarding—both professionally and personally. I had the opportunity to work alongside global executive leaders on high-impact transformation initiatives, gaining firsthand experience in aligning people, process, and technology at scale. I sharpened my skills in organizational change management, executive communications, and stakeholder engagement while contributing to enterprise-wide strategy and cultural transformation.

One of the biggest highlights was supporting board-level communications and leading internal alignment efforts across HR, product, and customer success.

SAP’s fast-paced, matrixed environment challenged me to be both strategic and agile, and it truly strengthened my ability to drive change in complex, global organizations.

Cons

One of the challenges during my time at SAP was navigating multiple organizational restructures. While change is part of any large enterprise, these shifts often led to talent transitions and loss of institutional knowledge across key teams. This impacted continuity, slowed momentum on long-term initiatives, and sometimes required re-establishing stakeholder alignment from the ground up.

It reinforced for me the importance of strong knowledge transfer practices, stakeholder mapping, and change readiness planning—especially in dynamic environments. These experiences deepened my ability to lead through uncertainty and helped me develop strategies to maintain engagement and clarity amidst evolving priorities.
