Episode Description

The Buzz: “There is no better approach to solving challenges than the famous saying ‘Two heads are better than one.’…Strategic partnerships benefit everyone: businesses, employees and customers.” [theglobeandmail.com] Do we underestimate the power of partnerships? As a consumer, how important is having a good experience? Can purpose and profit co-exist? No single company has a lock on selling any product or service. Because we can get what we want or need from multiple sources, we can be highly selective and weigh multiple factors – product quality, company reputation, brand alignment with our values (i.e., “green” business) – when choosing where to spend our money. We prefer to connect with companies that deliver consistent, quality experiences because we see and feel their commitment in each interaction. We’ll ask SAP’s Chief Partner Officer Karl Fahrbach and COO of the SAP Global Partner Organization Emer Neville to share their expert insights on The Power of Partnerships.
