My chat with Jeffrey P. Schik Vice President IBM Social Computing on CEBIT

This was definetly the highligt on CEBIT

IBM asked me if i was interested meeting Jeff Schick while being on CEBIT. I asked what he is and what he does. So i was told that he is the second highest within Social Computing Software within IBM.

My first thought was…..
#after  all the problems we had migrating to 8.0.0 and 8.0.1 id rather talk to Rhodin and tell him what i think is optimizationable within the very stiff support structure.
On the second thought i was very enthusiastic talking to someone who might be a bright star and some mastermind standing behind social computing.

So we started by introducing ourselfes shakhands and busnesscardswapping
Than i asked some of my prepared questions about beyond 2010 and i was suprised how onpenly Jeff talked about stuff that was not officialy released nor anounced. So i forgott about all my prepared questions anf we went on into a very hypthetical highlevel diskussion.

Mainly on technology but also on salesstrategy….. Wher Iam not sure if Jeff is aware that many ideas he has are not going to sell in europe.
We ran out of our shedule asJeff obviously found some interest in our little talk. As a result he asked me to join him into a telephonconference next week to go indepht about our conversation.

I wih IBM had more bright stars like him.
