Hasso Plattner's actions are characterized by quick decisions, clear strategy and far-reaching thinking.<\/p>\n<p>When ex-CEO Bill McDermott hinted at not wanting to stay at SAP for too much longer, Hasso closed the bag and removed Bill from all his positions!<\/p>\n<p>Many media speculate whether the financial investor Elliott exerted gentle pressure on the Supervisory Board and the Executive Board, whether Bill McDermott himself wanted to leave the ship \"SAP\" in the important fourth quarter - despite excellent Q3 figures.<\/p>\n<p>And many other speculations and reasons are offered on the web. No, Hasso Plattner alone decided this personnel matter. SAP does not need brilliant sales managers like L\u00e9o Apotheker or Bill McDermott at the top, but holistic managers like Professor Henning Kagermann or a dynamic Jennifer Morgan and a young Christian Klein, for whom the footsteps are hopefully not too big.<\/p>\n<p>The chances are good that the new SAP dual leadership of Morgan and Klein, trained by Supervisory Board member Gerd Oswald, will be a worthy successor to Henning Kagermann and Jim Hagemann Snabe.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor Hasso Plattner has summoned a few faithful companions to join him in the U.S., including SAP board members Jennifer Morgan and Christian Klein.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[27840],"tags":[187,35728,6388,186,36969],"coauthors":[19920],"class_list":["post-63026","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chefredakteur-blog","tag-bill-mcdermott","tag-christian-klein","tag-gerd-oswald","tag-hasso-plattner","tag-jennifer-morgan","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","image-100":"","image-480":"","image-640":"","image-720":"","image-960":"","image-1168":"","image-1440":"","image-1920":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":"","bricks_large_16x9":"","bricks_large":"","bricks_large_square":"","bricks_medium":"","bricks_medium_square":"","profile_24":"","profile_48":"","profile_96":"","profile_150":"","profile_300":""},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"<p>Professor Hasso Plattner hat ein paar getreue Weggef\u00e4hrten zu sich in die USA beordert, darunter die SAP-Vorstandsmitglieder Jennifer Morgan und Christian Klein.<\/p>\n","category_list_v2":"<a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/category\/editor-in-chief-blog\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Chefredakteur-Blog<\/a>","author_info_v2":{"name":"E-3 Magazine","url":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/author\/e-3-magazin\/"},"comments_num_v2":"0 comments","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63026","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63026"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63026\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63026"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63026"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63026"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=63026"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
