• Take their word for it

    This program, although being just a "coaching framework and competitive environment", enabled us or gave us a boost for multiple activities which would otherwise probably not happen: It increased our acceptance by local SAP and we have received more attention there. It was easier for us to get capacity of your tele-resources in Spain for the campaign. Also internally at Ness, we have started activities (backed up by this program) which might not be done otherwise - this is from my personal perspective the biggest contribution!

Confidentiality: Like in previous editions of the Best Performance Challenge, the documents uploaded as task deliverables within the team profile are visible only to the Enablers and Administrators and used within the rules of task scoring. The exception is in Category 4 "Share your best practices" because this category, per definition, allows partners who contribute/perform in this category to view other partner category 4 task deliverables details.
