TL;DR
BetterUp’s focus on global growth, and the recognition of localization as a crucial element within this, have made gaining institutional support and buy-in relatively straightforward.
Recent investments in technology and automation have played a significant role in elevating the localization program, paving the way for more efficient and effective localization efforts.
Jamie's vision includes bringing marketing and product vendors together under the same TMS to centralize resources and ensure consistency across localized content.
While BetterUp is not currently using machine translation in its localization workflows, Jamie is exploring potential use cases for this technology, as well as applications for LLMs such as GPT.
