Strategy to Execution:
How to Win as a Team with Workday People Analytics
Thursday, June 29
I've heard from all of you that there is a need for better reporting on the people data you have built through Workday, and this webinar is a great opportunity to hear how American Express has done just that. In the session, we will dive into how their team uses Workday People Analytics to rapidly identify insights and respond to business demands with greater organizational agility.
Data-Driven Agility with American Express:
This month is active for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), as we celebrate pride month and juneteenth. Many of you have shared that DEI efforts are a big focus and part of your key metrics for this year, so I wanted to tap into two assets that Workday has that may help you on that journey.
People Analytics allows your team to better understand key insights about trends, gaps and areas of improvement across your Workforce through data visualizations. Even better, it brings to light insights you might otherwise miss while also prioritizing them, tailoring them to your role, and pairing with narrative explanations so you can confidently make critical workforce decisions.
VIBE Central Diversity Dashboard is a configuration package that provides a foundation for you to leverage Workday VIBE™ methodology for belonging and diversity. This includes assessing if your hiring practices are balanced, promotion processes are inclusive and equitable, leadership succession plans are representative to the workforce and rate of voluntary attrition for diverse talent is high.
The links shared will bring you to demos and more information on each of these topics.
You also have the opportunity to join the People Analytics webinar with American Express later this month if you'd like to learn more.
