Advances in SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management Suite transform talent development and future-proofing
SAP today announced new features in the SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management Suite (HXM) that provide organizations with a powerful way to execute integrated talent development strategies to create a future-ready workforce. The advances were revealed at SuccessConnect — a virtual event that brings together SAP SuccessFactors customers, technology partners and HR leaders to talk about business transformation for the digital economy.
Organizations thrive when their professionals are engaged, properly qualified and aligned with the right opportunities, in addition to having a sense of belonging. However, many are struggling to get a holistic view of their teams' skills and ambitions. The latest advancements in the SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management Suite bring together data and machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) systems to ensure the workforce has the right skills, the right teams, and the right opportunities. 
THE skills ontology uses machine learning and automation to continuously identify an employee's competencies based on their roles, responsibilities, experiences and accomplishments, presenting a holistic view of an organization's skills on a global scale.
O growth portfolio is a dynamic library of employee attributes, including skills, strengths, work styles, passions and aspirations – putting the model of bringing your whole self to work into practice.
Dynamic Teams is a new feature that allows you to create, track, measure and optimize the results of teams going beyond traditional hierarchies. Organizations using SAP SuccessFactors Performance & Goals can use objectives and key results with dynamic teams to track progress and measure the success of actions. Additionally, dynamic employees and teams are matched based on what people know, not who they know, using machine learning and artificial intelligence systems within the SAP SuccessFactors Opportunity Marketplace to make personal growth more equitable.
These innovations provide the intelligence and adaptability needed to help develop more skilled, agile, and equitable workforces, which is critical to leading a sustainable organization. The growth portfolio and skills ontology provide talent intelligence to individualize recommendations that reflect each person's personality, not just their skills. Introducing Dynamic Teams breaks through traditional structures to support work based on skills rather than job descriptions—helping organizations create diverse teams capable of delivering better results while promoting personal and professional growth through practical experiences.
“Companies around the world are concerned about the skills gap challenge. But how well do they know their own workforce? With the use of data and automation, SAP is leading the way, creating a complete talent development system today and delivering what organizations need to manage, grow and train their professionals and teams for organizations of the future”, says Juliana Coimbra , vice president of SAP SuccessFactors products at SAP Brazil.
Belonging with personal names and pronouns of preference
Sustainability in people management means that an organization treats its workforce, its supply chain and the communities in which it operates ethically and fairly, recognizing that human potential must be supported and valued to drive resilience, agility and a brighter future. sustainable.
For talent development to be sustainable and impactful, organizations need to promote a sense of belonging. Enabling people to fully dedicate themselves to their work starts with their identity. SAP SuccessFactors users can now indicate their chosen name and personal pronouns in their public profile — allowing them to own the way they appear and be recognized as real at work.
The chosen names and personal pronouns will be available to all SAP SuccessFactors customers in the fourth quarter of 2022, as well as skills ontology, growth portfolio and dynamic teams.
