Esteban Kolsky of SAP: The role of an evangelist is to open conversations. This is all we do
b'The term \\u201cevangelist\\u201d has been thrown around a lot over the past couple of years. I\\u2019m not talking Jimmy Swaggart, TD Jakes or Joel Osteen. I\\u2019m talking about the evangelist role in terms of technology and business. But what does that mean and what do they really do?\\n\\nRecently me and my CRM Playaz co-host Paul Greenberg hosted a LinkedIn Live conversation with three of the leading CRM vendor evangelists to dig in a bit and find out what it really means to be an evangelist, what they do and how it differs from the perceptions out there for who evangelists are. Joining us were:\\n\\nVala Afshar, Chief Digital Evangelist for Salesforce\\nEsteban Kolsky, Chief CX Evangelist for SAP\\nMartin Schneider, Chief Evangelist and Head of Market Strategy for SugarCRM'
