The SAI
Global Consilium for 2026

The Solution Adoption Institute has a bold mission…

To drive a global improvement in how SAP S/4HANA implementations and SAP integrations land with people.

Our Ethos

We’re not here to recycle old playbooks.
The SAI Consilium is our living radar. Our light at the end.

A hand-picked band of leading practitioners feeding us signals from the front lines of SAP S/4HANA and integration projects. No client info is shared. Just unbridled passion.

The SAI Consilium is not governance. It’s not theatre.

It’s how we stay raw, adaptive and progressive while
lifting the global standard of SAP Solution Adoption.

  • A multi-phase SAP OCM delivery expert; CIAs → training traceability; makes change measurable and accountable, real lessons from stalled/turned-around programs; plugged into global OCM trends.

  • Led large SAP programs at the coal face and the board room; Activate aware, cutover & hypercare realities; governance with SI/business; translates delivery risk into adoption moves.

  • Hyped with AI trends and application with Joule copilot. Understands how to fast track solution adoption; improve change experience with market leading AI innovation. On the artificial pulse. Remains organic.

    1. Elevates solution adoption as an artform, not an afterthought.

    2. Tracks shifts in the global SAP current — from new tech to broken promises.

    3. Holds a mirror to SAI, forcing us to pivot, drop, or double-down as trends move.

    4. Distils each gathering into a Pulse Note: raw themes, global signals, where SAI is heading next.

    1. We convene quarterly (3 hours, virtual). No PowerPoint theatre. A lean agenda + open exchange.

    2. Members don’t execute. They feed the signal. SAI acts.

    3. Commitment: 12 months, volunteer basis.

  • We appoint the 2026 SAI Consilium in January.
