Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#75: The Great Handover, Why Workday Projects Need More Than Good Configuration, with Bao Le
Q: What goes wrong in the handover from sales to delivery and how can it be improved?
The disconnect often comes from a lack of early delivery insight during the sales cycle and insufficient context when consultants receive the documented discussions. Including delivery early, using transcripts, and involving account executives in scoping helps ensure consistency and manage expectations.
#74: Organizing Workday Around How People Actually Work, with Kris Kelpe
Q: Talk to us a little bit more about techno-functional and what you mean by that.
Techno-functional refers to people who blend business context with technical understanding, enabling faster issue resolution and more effective dashboard governance by combining functional knowledge with technical awareness.
#72: Workday Learning, Sana, and the Next Chapter of Employee Development with Kermick Santos
Q: Could you summarize how you're approaching the rollout of the learning and talent components at Schwab?
We're starting with the Talent Marketplace, Career Hub, and Manager Insights to engage managers and seed adoption, then populating skills to drive learning inferences, and finally rolling Learning Enterprise-wide later in the year, with a soft-live approach and a focus on getting early friendly users engaged.
#70: From PM to Founder, Lessons from the Journey with Alan Shearer
Q: How did your journey lead you to found Sparkmind AI Agency?
The episode traces a path from a traditional IT career through consulting, a rapid pivot during the financial crisis, and a growing interest in AI and Workday, which culminated in starting Sparkmind to bring AI solutions to Workday-adjacent clients.
Job Aids, Governance, and Getting People to Actually Adopt Workday, with Kendria Countee
Q: What were some of the most effective changes you implemented during governance setup?
We started with a light governance model, brought together HR, finance, and IT, and established a cross-functional steering committee to surface priorities, ensure communication, and avoid silos, while being mindful of module interdependencies.
