Education NewsCast 084 - AFRIKA KOMMT! at SAP - More than a Talent Development Program

AFRIKA KOMMT! is a quality education program for Young
Professionals from Africa, which provides future leaders the
opportunity to come to Germany, develop international management
skills and work in a partner company like SAP, BOSCH or B.
Melsungen for eight months. Thomas interviews Ilka Wiskemann, the
SAP project lead for AFRIKA KOMMT! on the details of this One-Year
Program. The main focus, besides a German Language Course and an
International Management Training in cooperation with the GIZ
(Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit), is concrete work
experience, taking over responsibility and collaboration through
working for SAP within a scope of 8 months. Faith Mwema and Taiwo
Ladipo as current "AFRIKA KOMMT!" fellows tell their experiences
and also what they have learned from the German culture. They
especially appreciate SAPs open collaborative and supportive
culture and share some experiences from their work in the
SuccessFactors Engineering Team. At the end we look into the
learnings which they have gained from each other. Check out the
