My first assignment was in Poland on a new three-year project to build a shared services organization and provide transparency on global travel costs. It is the first in a series of cross-functional transformation initiatives, a pilot project to create a methodology that can then be reused in other areas of the business.
This was a tough project to begin with. The platform had to be highly adaptable to cope with variations in travel policy across different countries and included many stakeholders with different perspectives and priorities. The learning curve was massive.
Sometimes, it felt like people were speaking a foreign language. There was the software architecture to understand, then the implementation of different tools, the analytics and finally the migration models. How do you move from dozens of legacy systems in a smooth and efficient way, while retaining data quality? On top of all that, there were the project management methodologies to learn too. Each discipline has its own vocabulary and culture that you have to learn.
It was certainly a challenge and a great way to begin my program! On your second assignment, you wanted to learn more about managing IT projects from the business side? Yes, I was based in ABB headquarters in Zurich for this assignment and supported project management and communications.
Often you face issues because the dialogue between the business and Information Services is not as clear as it should be. I wanted to reduce this risk by understanding the business fundamentals. How do you create a global business process, for example? Who are the stakeholders? What are the drivers? There were many challenges to navigate before a consensus began to emerge.
I learned so much and it really helps me be much more patient. Your third assignment was in a small business recently acquired by ABB. How has that been? Really interesting. View all jobs.
