Why do so many ERP transformations derail careers at the highest level?
It’s not the technology.
It’s everything else.
In this episode of Let’s Solve IT!, Matt Brown sits down with NetApp CIO Hem Nerkar to confront one of the most uncomfortable truths in enterprise IT: ERP transformations don’t start by failing systems—they start by breaking the people leading them.
Because what looks like a software upgrade is actually a high-risk, multi-year bet on your company’s culture, operations, and future.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Massive financial investment with no immediate payoff
• Organizational resistance at every level
• Hundreds of systems and stakeholders in play
• And a clock that never stops ticking while the business keeps running
Hem Nerkar pulls back the curtain on what really makes these transformations so dangerous and what separates those projects that succeed from those that quietly unravel careers.
This isn’t about features.
This isn’t about vendors.
This is about pressure, risk, and leadership when there is no safe path forward.
Let’s talk about what that really means. Let’s Solve IT!
