Introduction

The facts, the facts and nothing but the facts! …that and a little bit of friendly batter and complementing chatter – including a few back-seat trolls! :)

SAP Mentor Monday

So, there they were…. my five minutes of fame, so to speak. Well, a littlebit more than that actually. At the end it took me around 13 minutes to briefly introduce myself plus to do a short demo on scalable service interfaces. Did I overdo it? I have to admit that I didn’t do a timed test-run, which Otto rightly wondered about… (guess I read 5+8 minutes instead of 5-8 minutes).

Anyway, so here it goes – my self-reflection upon my introduction at the last SAP Mentor Monday webinar.

Introduction

Oh wow… word is on the street! Mark Finnern announced the new SAP Mentors:Welcome New SAP Mentors Fall 2010.

And well, … my name is on that list, and while I’ve known about the nomination for months back I have kept silent on the fact. You know, I’m that nerdy to consider a nomination for SAP Mentors like being nominated for playing in the national team – just better! Being around the SAP Community Network for 3 years now, I’ve seeing this initiative lift off and really forming a tribe that makes a change – simply through their multiplier capabilities. As such, being nominated is already a very positive sign of recognition and something that makes it legitimate to tap your own shoulder for a moment. ;) Still, it just didn’t feel right to talk about it before, I mean – it’s just a story if you really make it, kind of. Know what I mean?
