Today, brands have a responsibility beyond simply growing shareholder value -- expectations are greater for how a company’s mission serves its customers, employees, and the broader community. SAP has been a long-time proponent of this approach, embodied in its brand promise: to make the world run better and improve people’s lives. And now, with its newly launched Partner for Purpose initiative, SAP is connecting leading brands from around the world to work together to do more, with more.
In this session, learn about the power of partnerships and deep dive into SAP’s industry-leading Autism at Work program that taps into this traditionally underutilized, yet talented, group. Six years into this purpose-driven journey of discovery and transformation, the impact on business, lives, and community has gone well beyond original expectations. Through the Partner for Purpose initiative, the Autism at Work program has now grown beyond SAP to include Austin-based Dell Technologies. Bringing together the power and influence of these two industry leaders to leverage technology in service of individuals on the autism spectrum will help enable companies to reach diversity and inclusion goals, while greatly benefitting their businesses and communities.
