SAP History of Isa Zöller:
Isa Zöller founded the Future Learning Lab in 2019 as a human platform for collaboration and innovation topics. In the sector of learning, she started to form a group of active volunteers who were interested in fighting against all kind of borders and silos that hindered them from working together for one common goal. With this mindset she was able to establish a whole team of volunteers that called itself “FUEL” to generate ideas together for big innovative learning events that have never been organized in that format, not with that target group, not with that intention, not with that methodology and not with those great inspirational tools. The inspiration of Future Learning Lab went viral and could inspire around 2000 people who probably will carry that innovative spirit to their own areas helping the company to grow a human & innovative culture within SAP and also to partners, colleagues & generally spoken people outside SAP. The Future Learning Lab was founded within a short period in time, starting with a field trip to start-ups, with a lot of research and several workshops to foster the futuristic thinking and mindset. It was followed by different events, expert talks and raise its peak with a big “Working Out Loud” event that honored the founder of the movement itself but also brought a new kind of spirit to many employees at SAP. In summer, a new camp called “Social learning experience camp” and one “Future unconventional learning experience camp” brought 2 important topics to the heart of many people, which was: company success cannot happen without society and continuous learning is a close mixture of innovation, creativity, science & arts. Everything at the Future Learning Lab was new and helped experimenting and bringing new trends in learning. The events and talks helped employees to understand that learning, inspiration & creative thinking always goes hand in hand with others. Networking, collaboration, co-creation are key elements in the future of learning.
Isa will leave SAP 2019 and will start her own business called “Life Innovation Mindset”. She will carry this innovative thinking to many different areas and companies focusing on topics like “Team innovative thinking, Life Design & Working out Loud”.
