About

I bring customer, product and delivery teams together to move CX and B2B SaaS initiatives from plan to adoption.

In nearly 15 years in CX and B2B SaaS, including SAP CX, I’ve led implementations, workshops and enablement across EMEA. I’m at my best when the ground keeps moving: scope changes, features that aren’t ready, stakeholders who disagree. Where others see a problem, I look for the option that still works, and I say early and respectfully when a plan won’t hold.

German by origin and based in Spain for 20 years, I work in German, English and Spanish and have learned to read a room across cultures. Now I'm applying my AI studies and hands-on experience, from enablement sessions on AI features to AI assistants I've built, to practical use cases in CX and adoption.

SAP Adoption Services & Enablement

Role: Portfolio Adoption Specialist

Challenge
New outcome-based services needed to be adopted by the Sales and Customer Success teams amid low trust, competing priorities, team reorganisations, and no shared pipeline view.
What I did
Worked with regional leaders, tailoring sessions from EMEA-wide and market-unit groups to one-to-ones, and facilitated value-focused workshops.
What it shows
Adoption is built through trust and relevant communication, not just announcements. This approach brought the value proposition to 200+ Customer Success colleagues and contributed to a 150% increase in the share of cloudified services and 97% more subscription deals.

First B2B identity implementation of a new solution

Role: Implementation Consultant

Challenge
The project shifted from B2C to B2B after kick-off, with changing scope, a small customer team, developing features, and pandemic-era budget cuts.
What I did
Defined an acceptable MVP, phased migration, integrations, and consent management, coordinated closely with the product team and kept expectations transparent.
What it shows
Leading through a moving target and product realities while meeting customer needs. The pilot went live with positive customer feedback.

Identity platform migration across 32 sites and 40+ apps

Role: Engagement Lead

Challenge
A move from an in-house build to a vendor platform, with extensive scope, a fixed price, an ambitious timeline and changing priorities.
What I did
Defined a tight scope, pushed for an MVP approach, set clear timelines and regular governance, and made customer responsibilities visible.
What it shows
Delivery discipline under constraints. The migration went live in five months against the original four-month target, on budget and in scope, with a satisfied customer and CSM team.

De-risking high-customization delivery through a POC

Role: Engagement Lead

Challenge
Took over a strained engagement with a long-standing customer to work on a new stream. A design review had flagged high-risk points with customizations.
What I did
Pushed for a POC as foundation. Put governance in writing, aligned with the internal account team and the lead technical architect, kept continuous contact with the customer.
What it shows
Holding a position with a difficult stakeholder, calmly and in writing. After a bumpy phase, the approach was accepted and the project moved forward.
