ENC250 – Cloud Mindset beyond the buzz – why is it important and what you need to change - with Andreas Muno

Education NewsCast

Andreas has been an IT and SAP expert for over 2 decades. Currently he serves as Principal Director in the global SAP S/4HANA Cloud Expertise Service team. In the podcast he shares his view on cloud mindset and respective elements like business process standardization, innovation adoption, collaborating in expert communities or the speed of implementing. We talk about assumptions, mis-assumptions and fails in cloud projects – where the biggest fail is to underestimate the human factor. Andreas shares his experience of sound organizational change approaches like the change readiness or cloud mindset assessment, change impact assessment aligned to the fit-to standard workshops as well important values to consider. These are e.g. experimentation and iteration, seeing change as a journey and not a one-time shift and relentless curiosity.
