Excellent administration of my financial matters as a contracter.
As a SAP contractor I have worked at many different companies the past 23 years. My longest project was with SAPO (11 years). I did not get many chances to attend courses. Was usually "thrown in at the deep end" and succeeded to survive every time! I have presented more courses than those I have attended! This includes SAP Work Bench at SAPSA itself. What i like most is to start with the technical system design, then the technical detail spec's, develop, train and final implementation / support. I like to work in a team, particularly as team lead. I always ensure I stay up to date with latest trends in SAP, particularly the "wishes and commands" of SAP AG! Blessings - Johan Nel ( JC )
Pros: Get paid when I HAVE to work long hours during a crisis ;>)
Cons: Professional politics on some sites...

Lifelong learning and personal development
My typical working environment is that Mondays are meant for finalising full work schedule for the week. Fridays between 2pm and 3pm, my team and I plan for the following week and we use the hour and half to reflect on the ending week and deliberate on encountered challenges. As a manager I prefer to establish a seamless communication channel with co-workers to ensure any staff member can share ideas. I make sure the environment is conducive for all staff members to ensure we are able to engage one another constructively and we are also able to learn from each other. I have learnt over the last 11 years as a manager to lead by example and to create an atmosphere of symbiotic working relation as a way of maintaining productivity and motivation. I am on a lifelong learning journey personally and professionally. This enables me to continuously seek capacity enrichment and building in order to grow professionally. The most challenging aspects of my career is dealing with unpredictable people at all levels
Pros: Always seeking career growth and professional development (capacity)
Cons: Lack of Supervisor or Management Support
