ASUG Partners with Optimal Solutions to
Expand, Enhance ASUG Executive Exchange
Group Will Emphasize Project Management, Mobility and Analytics in 2012
CHICAGO, Jan. 17, 2011 – Americas’ SAP Users’ Group (ASUG), the world’s largest independent community of SAP professionals, is partnering with Optimal Solutions Integration to expand and enhance the ASUG Executive Exchange program in 2012.
The ASUG Executive Exchange is a dynamic community of senior executives and influencers within the SAP ecosystem. The select group represents a range of industries, customer viewpoints, and strategic perspectives related to SAP solutions. The goal of the Executive Exchange is to create greater alignment between business strategy and information technology.
The Executive Exchange equips individuals to lead high-performing enterprises in the deployment, productive use, and optimization of SAP solutions and business processes. Participants work together to adopt innovative business practices that improve and optimize value propositions, supply chains, productivity, and efficiency.
In 2012, supported by Optimal Solutions and SAP, the ASUG Executive Exchange will focus on helping customers identify opportunities and solve ambiguities in the development of business strategies related to mobility and analytics. Educational opportunities will be extended to encompass the best practices executives can use to enrich and strengthen the project management disciplines across the enterprise, ensuring better focus and results from future investment.
“We view our support of the ASUG Executive Exchange as a natural extension of our mission to help leaders transform their businesses with SAP-based business solutions," said Sam Sliman, President, Optimal Solutions Integration. "Great leaders never stop learning or cease in their pursuit of excellence, and we are excited to collaborate with ASUG on the development and execution of their near- and long-term business strategies. We expect this engagement will deliver critical insight to the mutual benefit of both the participants and experts in our own organization.”
Specifically, Optimal Solutions will provide strategic guidance as a member of the Executive Exchange steering team. They will also contribute content to discussion forums, author special articles, and serve as subject matter experts at ASUG events.
“We are thrilled to have the support of Optimal Solutions," said Joshua Blair, ASUG Senior Vice President. "We chose to partner with Optimal to give participants the full advantage of access to a strong bench of experts across a variety of subject matters. Furthermore, Optimal's business philosophy begins and ends with business results, rather than leading with the bits and bytes. This will help our members confidently navigate the middle ground between promise and practice.”
