SAPPHIRENOW and ASUG Annual Conference are shaping up to be a must-attend event. Let me give you another reason to register today, besides the informative and innovative programming about SAP products planned for attendees.

I am pleased to share that General Colin Powell will be in Orlando at the ASUG General Session. Don't miss the opportunity to hear General Powell speak at the ASUG general session on the subject of Leadership:  Taking Charge. This sounds like a highly motivational message for all of us as we seek to move beyond the day-to-day challenges of our work to think about the broader issues of behaving like a leader, no matter what the task is. Moving through our recession to a more positive business outlook, it's time to get motivated by someone who has moved through tremendous challenges in his life.

Here's a bit of background on General Powell (General Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.) and Secretary of State (2001-2005), in case you need a reminder of some of his achievements:

"When General Powell was sworn into office as the 65th Secretary of State, he brought with him extensive leadership experience. Before becoming Secretary of State, Powell served as a key aide to the Secretary of Defense and as National Security Advisor to President Reagan.

A fervent advocate of democratic values, Powell led the State Department in major efforts to solve regional and civil conflicts, and used the power of diplomacy to build trust and forge alliances.

Powell is also the author of My American Journey, his best-selling autobiography. "

The SAP Community Network team is looking forward to connecting with you in person at Orlando and Frankfurt. I encourage you to connect with #SAPPHIRENOW on Twitter to hear the pre event buzz.
