SAP reorganizes business units to align sales, product strategy
Summary
The enterprise software giant -- which is moving forward under the duel leadership of Jennifer Morgan and Christian Klein following the departure of CEO Bill McDermott in October -- is adopting a new new organizational model that aligns functions across divisions. For SAP, the new organizational structure could help the company present its product portfolio to customers in a less confusing and disjointed way. The company has long had a reputation of being complex and expensive, with customers at times struggling to understand the link between price and value when it comes to SAPs bevy of products. SAPs success is dependent on customers trust in our competence and ability to solve their challenges of the future," said co-CEO Klein. SAP also announced that board members Stefan Ries and Michael Kleinemeier are leaving the company.
