SAP Successfactors-Transforming HCM to HXM
Traditional Human Capital Management (HCM) as we know it is changing with the times to embrace the philosophy of employee experience, and positioning it as equally important to customer experience. In this new experience economy, SuccessFactors has shifted from a transactional system to an experience-based system. Since SAP is so well known for integrated talent management, the team decided to “redefine the market” – introducing the category of Human Experience Management (HXM). HXM presents a shift in mindset, design, and architecture that puts employees at the centre of business and prioritises experiences so that employees are not only able to be productive but be their best selves and reach their highest potential.

Traditional
with the times to embrace the philosophy of employee experience, and
positioning it as equally important to customer experience. In this new
experience economy, SuccessFactors has shifted from a transactional
system to an experience-based system. Since SAP is so well known for
integrated talent management, the team decided to “rede ne the
market” – introducing the category of Human Experience Management
(HXM). HXM presents a shift in mindset, design, and architecture that
puts employees at the centre of business and prioritises experiences so
that employees are not only able to be productive but be their best
selves and reach their highest potential.
There have been countless changes in the way we work since the
COVID-19 pandemic, and now, more than ever the needs of individuals
need to be front and centre. HXM gives employees the ability to work
autonomously, in the driver’s seat of their own career journeys while
also securing organisational agility amidst changing circumstances. By
surfacing tools when and where employees need them, employees can
spend more time on the work that matters most. At the same time,
leaders and managers can check in with pulse surveys to see how
employees are doing and quickly make changes to deliver the best
experience possible.

with the end-user in mind across the entire HR ecosystem. In other words, creating experiences
that allow candidates, new hires, recruiters, employees, managers, and HR leaders to do things
more quickly and easily so they can be more productive”.
