TOP-Speakers - Winners Dream: A Journey from Corner Store to Corner Office

Freitag 16.09.2016, 13:30 - 14:30



Veranstaltungsort:

TUM Campus Garching, Boltzmannstr. 5, Interims 2 

Vortragender
Bill McDermott (Chief Executive Officer of SAP)

Winners Dream A Journey from Corner Store to Corner Office In this session, Bill McDermott will draw on stories from his own life to illustrate how relentless optimism, hard work, and disciplined execution can help people and organizations to achieve audacious goals. Bill will talk about the lessons he learned growing up in working-class Long Island, New York, where at age 16 he traded three hourly wage jobs to buy a small deli. After paying for and graduating college, Bill talked his way into a job selling copiers door-to-door for Xerox, where he went on to rank number one in every sales position he held and eventually became the company’s youngest-ever corporate officer. Eventually, Bill left Xerox and in 2002 became the unlikely president of SAP’s flailing American business unit. There, he injected enthusiasm and accountability into the demoralized culture by scaling his deli, sales, and management strategies. Today, as CEO of SAP, Bill still draws on these early lessons to help guide the company, and SAP’s customers, in an ever-changing and evolving global market.
