Say what? 'Shai is meaningless' News.blog CNET News.com: "Shai Agassi, the president of SAP's product and technology group, is a rising star at the company. The 38-year-old is rising so fast that he is in line for the position of CEO at one of the largest software companies in the world.

Maybe he needs to learn to talk himself up more. "
