This week on the HR Happy Hour Show, Steve and Trish talked with Anka Wittenberg, Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer (CDIO) at SAP.  We had the good fortune of recording live from SAP/ Successfactors “SuccessConnect 2016” event.  Anka is leading the global People Sustainability Department encompassing Diversity & Inclusion, People Principles and Health. She is the pivotal change agent on how to design and implement work relationship at SAP – all together in an inclusive environment based on mutual respect, care and trust.

Anka talked with us about developing and implementing SAP’s Diversity and Inclusion strategy globally, and the steps they take to ensure sustainable business success. She shared her thoughts on why diversity and inclusion still really matter.  She also talked about some of the programs and policies that have been implemented at SAP to promote and support diversity and inclusion in the organization.
