Watch “The Future of Work and AI” on ByDesign TV

Learn how SAP uses Machine Learning to help individuals find and pursue internal opportunities that match their interests and values while meeting the company’s needs.

Recently, a few colleagues and I shared insights about the Future of Work with ByDesign TV Innovations and how SAP’s product suite leverages the latest innovations from the design system, inclusive user research, and emerging technology like AI to help everyone do their best work and build a better tomorrow.

In the video below, you will see how SAP is leveraging Machine Learning in the Opportunity Marketplace to provide individuals the agency to find and pursue internal opportunities that align with their personal values, passions, and interests, as well as the strategic needs of the business.

To accomplish that, SAP SuccessFactors Opportunity Marketplace uses machine learning to power an adaptable talent profile that continuously shapes and refines a digital picture of an individual’s whole self over time, including their skills, competencies, strengths, styles, and expertise, as well as their motivations, work styles, aspirations, and interests. It continuously updates an individual’s preferences for development and growth to ensure the recommendations presented within SAP SuccessFactors Opportunity Marketplace reflect their current interests and goals.
