What is the ERP Leadership in Complex Organizations course about?
Even with deep technical knowledge, ERP leaders face invisible resistance: misaligned teams, inconsistent data practices, and executive expectations that outpace implementation. The pressure intensifies when upgrades, audits, or transformations expose gaps not in software, but in coordination. Without a clear framework, even experienced professionals drown in firefighting, losing strategic ground.
