About Steffen

I support companies in managing, stabilizing, and governing complex ERP and Cloud ERP transformations.

My focus is on structuring roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes, collaborating with implementation partners, and ensuring transparency regarding risks, dependencies, and priorities in challenging transformation programs.

I assist clients, implementation partners, and product organizations in clarifying expectations, governing transformation projects, and stabilizing critical project and program phases.

My background: over 20 years of ERP experience – from ERP implementation projects and international product and localization strategy to customer and partner success in the Cloud ERP environment. Most recently, I was responsible at SAP for supporting and stabilizing public cloud ERP customers in the international mid-market.

I work in a structured, pragmatic manner with a focus on clarity, decision-making ability, and sustainable control.
