Pull up last year’s Workday support invoices and set them next to your Workday calendar. Chances are that they will tell two very different stories.
The calendar shows a March release, a September release, open enrollment, year-end, a merit cycle, and maybe a January reorganization nobody planned for. It also shows long stretches where very little happened at all.
People have always been at the center of every successful organization. What has changed is the pace at which organizations must attract, develop, engage, and retain talent to remain competitive. In an environment defined by evolving workforce expectations, AI-driven innovation, and constant business disruption, HR is no longer simply responsible for managing people; it has become a strategic driver of organizational growth and resilience.
Banner Modernization Checklist: 10 Questions Every Higher Ed IT Leader Should Ask Let’s Connect August 06, 2026 Somewhere inside your institution’s Ellucian Banner ERP, there is a workflow nobody has questioned in a decade.
