ABB moved from seven ERPs to just one version of SAP in nine months. Previously the different methods of reporting created a culture of dependence on spreadsheets and manual intervention. Getting away from this to understand that there is one version of the truth in SAP is a huge change management exercise, and one that few conquer well. Andrew Marshall and Martin Smith from ABB will share the approach they used to give their business confidence that SAP produces reliable reporting data without manual intervention. After going live in December 2009, they have invoked an approach to continuously improve and optimise their processes with SAP. Now the CFO’s ambition is to complete reporting on day three. If you want a fresh, people-focused approach to get the most from your SAP’s reporting capabilities, attend this session.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
