Consultant Reviews

 

Excellent administration of my financial matters as a contracter.

As a SAP contractor I have worked at many different companies the past 23 years. My longest project was with SAPO (11 years). I did not get many chances to attend courses. Was usually "thrown in at the deep end" and succeeded to survive every time! I have presented more courses than those I have attended! This includes SAP Work Bench at SAPSA itself. What i like most is to start with the technical system design, then the technical detail spec's, develop, train and final implementation / support. I like to work in a team, particularly as team lead. I always ensure I stay up to date with latest trends in SAP, particularly the "wishes and commands" of SAP AG! Blessings - Johan Nel ( JC )

Pros: Get paid when I HAVE to work long hours during a crisis ;>)
Cons: Professional politics on some sites...

Getting to see everything

Being in the energy sector I get to see everything. Energy covers all industry from the simple light bulb upgrade to complex production changes. Coming from a manufacturing and power plant construction background, none of that compares to the exposure of the energy buiseness. Coming across new technology some times needs brain storming sessions. Learned alot of project management application and chising the correct approach for different projects.

Pros: Getting to learn far more than the average career
Cons: Unstable

Excellent learning curve

I have just completed my Masters in Cybersecurity on a fulltime basis with IE Business School in Madrid. It has been a great journey learning the effects and benefits of cyber in the current landscape. i have enjoyed the diversity of the class as there were 14 different nationalities, all with different backgrounds. But we managed to work through team work, which is critical in the current cyber space. The most challenging aspects were projects that were were allocated to resolve for different companies. Some did not have IT background, but we had to understand one another to move forward and teach one another to win as a team. Some could not catchup at the same speed

Pros: Great opportunity for networking
Cons: Sleepless nights

Lifelong learning and personal development

My typical working environment is that Mondays are meant for finalising full work schedule for the week. Fridays between 2pm and 3pm, my team and I plan for the following week and we use the hour and half to reflect on the ending week and deliberate on encountered challenges. As a manager I prefer to establish a seamless communication channel with co-workers to ensure any staff member can share ideas. I make sure the environment is conducive for all staff members to ensure we are able to engage one another constructively and we are also able to learn from each other. I have learnt over the last 11 years as a manager to lead by example and to create an atmosphere of symbiotic working relation as a way of maintaining productivity and motivation. I am on a lifelong learning journey personally and professionally. This enables me to continuously seek capacity enrichment and building in order to grow professionally. The most challenging aspects of my career is dealing with unpredictable people at all levels

Pros: Always seeking career growth and professional development (capacity)
Cons: Lack of Supervisor or Management Support
