If you want to change, you need to change your own mind first and only then you can help others change their mind. Leading Others Through Change is THE most critical leadership responsibility. You need to dedicate considerable effort in seeking everybody’s commitment in a shared response to change, while also ensuring that nobody is left behind. Your active participation is of highest importance – your system will never change unless you also change.

CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT

What is the Net Promoter Score (NPS) and why is it important to SAP?

Customer loyalty is one of SAP’s four company-wide strategic goals, along with growth, profitability, and employee engagement. One of the key metrics to measure our non-financial performance in the area of customer loyalty is the customer Net Promoter Score (NPS). The NPS is calculated through the answer to the “likelihood to recommend” question in our annual NPS survey. Customer responses are then categorized into one of three groups: Promoters, Passives, and Detractors. The percentage of Detractors is then subtracted from the percentage of Promoters to obtain the score, and this can range from –100 to +100. While NPS is based on an overall score, it also provides valuable insight into our customers’ view on their relationship with us, our solutions, and services. It drives change and strategies within the organisation. If you are an SAP direct customer and wish to receive the survey to share your feedback, please request the survey under the following link.
