SAP BW Consultant to maintain market competitiveness?

ERP sales, said an old joke:


3 men propose marriage to the woman's parents: talk about their situation. A: I have 10 million; B: I have a mansion, worth 20 million; the woman's parents are very satisfied, and asked C, what is your home? C: I have nothing, only one child. Now children in your daughter's stomach. A, B silent, and left. This case tells us a simple truth, the core competitiveness is not the money and the house is to have his own people in key positions.

Like with most of the electrical, SAP consultants often confused time. Because the world is changing very fast. Every electrician, always in fear that they will not be eliminated by the rapid development of technology. So, as a BW consultant, how to keep the market competitive? I think it needs the efforts of two aspects: One is to constantly update their technology portfolio to meet professional development needs. The second is to build a career around your social network so that you can often get some opportunities. The construction of social networking for any workplace who are very important, everyone has his own way. Here, I focus with my own learning plan, BW consultant to talk about how to maintain professional skills of market competitiveness.

BW consultants to build their professional skills in combination, there are several key points:
1 balance of technology and business. BW consultants are basically technical background, is essentially a technical consultant. We often talk about the business is very important, but do not cart before the horse. Because, in business, you can never compete over the business background of functional consultant, you need to be able to understand business needs, and to use business language to communicate with users. Therefore, most of the BW consultant's skill set should be 80% +20% of the business of technology. High-end BW consultant, such as BI Solution Architect, will be required for some of the business. Of course, if your goal is to BW-based BI solution consultants, such as SEM / EPM Consultant, then your skills should be a combination of 50% + 50% of the business technology

2 balance "special" and "Pan." Skills learning, there have been two tendencies. Some people like the field in a deepening and eventually become experts; was then studied under a wide range, a wide range of knowledge, called the all-rounder. The SAP field, the professionals are much more important than the pan. The first division of SAP's project is relatively thin. Second, SAP each of these areas, to reach a certain depth, we need continuous accumulation, and most jobs recruit people, more of a candidate in a particular field value accumulation, rather than his full knowledge. Although sometimes heard the legend all in one consultant, but really have not seen. In which the company did not see the posts all in one setting. Therefore, we must first ensure that you are a professional field, and then develop some other skills to achieve competitive differentiation.
