My Top Events for June
AI, Automation, and the Strategic CAO
Tuesday, June 20
To be successful, CAOs must consider how best to partner with CIOs, build an enterprise-wide data strategy, and determine how to use machine learning to compliment, rather than replace talent. Join Argyle, KPMG, and Workday for a timely webinar to learn how you can go beyond your traditional CAO responsibilities and create a new operating model that is powered by modern technology and an innovative mindset.
The Future of Finance:
in an Era of Constant Changes
Wednesday, June 21
You heard in the Shutterstock testimonial how better planning allowed their business to be more agile by allowing FP&A, operational, and executive teams to make data-driven decisions that help them respond quickly and effectively to changing market conditions. In this webinar, you'll learn more about how other customers have successfully implemented this asset.

Product Spotlight:
Workday Spend Management
Did you know that today there are +1,525 customers leveraging the procurement and sourcing aspects of Workday Spend Management?
That number has been made possible by both enhancements in our Procurement solution and the acquisition of Scout RFP (now Workday Strategic Sourcing). These two products working together are enabling customers to create a robust and highly efficient Source-to-Pay process for their workforce.
They are seeing significant impacts to their bottom line by having key insights into their spend, better internal stakeholder engagement with sourcing/procurement teams and ultimately more strategic relationships with their suppliers.
If your procurement and sourcing teams have key priorities aligned to these areas, I'd encourage you to join us on Tuesday, June 6 as we discuss how AI and ML have been imbedded into our Source-to-Pay solutions to interrogate data, detect risks, drive efficiencies, and co-create the future of work.
