In this Acceleration Economy interview between Bob Evans and Merlix Reynolds, VP Accounting at RaceTrac, they dive deep into the impacts that implementing Workday Financial Management brought to her team and business.

You’ll hear 3 key themes throughout the discussion:

1. Workday’s impact: The adoption of Workday’s unified platform, encompassing both HCM and financials, has played a pivotal role in RaceTrac’s ability to streamline processes, reduce post-processing time, and enhance overall efficiency.

2. Cultural shift: Implementation has not only brought technological benefits but also triggered a cultural shift within RaceTrac. Employees are now more comfortable engaging with data, seeking information, and collaborating with the accounting team, fostering a more collaborative, informed decision-making environment.

3. Quick adaptability: The adaptable nature of Workday’s platform allows RaceTrac to swiftly adapt to changing business needs. The company can integrate new data, work with different modules, and implement changes in as little as a month, providing a nimble response to evolving requirements.

My favorite part of the discussion is Merlix talking about her team now being in meetings and conversations that they were not previously a part of because they are now viewed as valued partners.
