How long was Henning Kagermann at SAP?
SAP’s official company history says Kagermann left in 2009 after 27 years at the company, 18 of them on its Executive Board. An SEC-filed SAP annual report records him as co-CEO and a board member until May 31, 2009. The company history does not specify a publication year for its tenure figures.
What was happening at SAP during his tenure?

Who led SAP after Kagermann?
SAP’s history says Léo Apotheker became the company’s sole CEO after Kagermann’s departure in 2009. The SEC filing gives May 31, 2009 as the end date for Kagermann’s co-CEO and board membership; the chronology and filing together document the leadership transition without establishing Kagermann’s reflections on it.

The sources available here do not identify the specific article, interview, or first-person account implied by the title. They support a concise account of Kagermann’s tenure and SAP’s contemporaneous milestones, but not attributed lessons, opinions, or quotations. Without the original retrospective, claims about what he reflected on would go beyond the documented record.
