“For every complex problem in this
world, there exists a simple solution. The secret to success is to have a
passion to find that solution” – in a nutshell, this is what I learnt by
working in Cordys.
Baan was my first Job. Being a
mechanical engineering student, my software knowledge was negligible when I
joined. My transformation into a BPM engine architect for Cordys within the next
10 years was only possible because the leadership team believed in me, allowed
me to capitalize on my strengths while I continuously worked on the weakness to
eradicate it. The culture encourages everyone to try new things. Failures were
considered as learning steps. Trust and complete ownership was given. In
Cordys, I learnt to be a leader instead of following in someone else footsteps.
I was involved in the complete life-cycle of Luminous product development and
BPM product suite development and this gives me immense satisfaction that I
have produced something highly innovative and worthy in the global market.
I have
learnt many things from Jan Baan who is the founder of Cordys. He is a real
leader with whom I have interacted many times. I learnt the following
lessons from him: Follow your passion, Wealth will follow you. There is really
nothing called success and failure, it’s a perception. Only in failures we
learn more. He says, ‘never measure your success with money’ and I like this
very much and it has made a big impact in me. We talk about Mr.Jan Baan many
times in our family and my family has a very high opinion of him. I am also
proud to mention the role played by the then CTO of Cordys, Mr. Theodoor van Donge in
shaping my professional carrier. He identified the talent in me and converted
me into a fine machine from a raw casting.
The culture, the leadership team and
the motivation given by them made me what I am today. What I am today is
because of Cordys Company and I am proud of what I am today.
