Business Conversation and Standards

Approyo’s Christopher Carter: “The staffing issue is my big thing right now. We’ve got staff around the globe, and are trying to find those right technical resources. They need to have the ability to be able to have a conversation with our client, and to be able to have it at a technical level and an executive level on the business side. This has proved very difficult because within SAP activity, the only place I can go to brace and manipulate the curriculum is to their SAP universities, such as University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and the University of Houston, for example.

“We are finding that their people don’t know how to talk business. That needs to be brought together. People at the university level have no clue because no one is properly teaching them those business conversations and those business standards in the way we need them to be taught.”
