Happy New Year and welcome back to the Unsafe Harbor podcast! In this episode, we’ll be talking to Greg Higgins, Manager of HRIS Solutions & Analytics for a pretty big customer. He has been in the ecosystem for almost 10 years and is a regular speaker at Workday events like Rising and Regional User Groups.

I’m super excited for this episode because we get to talk about one of my favorite things in Workday: Discovery Boards. We’ll cover the good, the bad, the ugly, and we even talk through how Discovery Boards could improve.

In this episode, we’ll be talking to Joshua Alexander. Joshua is an Account Executive at Syssero. I initially met Joshua while he was a recruiter for Syssero and he’s easily become one of my favorite people in the ecosystem.

Since Joshua gets to connect with both hiring managers & candidates, he has such a fascinating perspective of the current state of the Workday world. On this episode, we talk recent shifts in the ecosystem, seasonal trends, and skills that are growing in demand. Here’s my conversation with Joshua.

In this episode, we’ll be talking to Shannon Whitley. Shannon is a Director of People Operations & Systems in the Tech space. He has been in the ecosystem for 10+ years and has been part of multiple Workday implementations.

I initially learned about Shannon through his Boomerang integration and WOW, am I glad that I found out about his LinkedIn & Github pages. Shannon might be one of the best when it comes to creating contributed solutions. Be sure to check out Shannon’s LinkedIn & Github pages.

Just as a heads up, this conversation happened before Workday Rising this year. We do talk about technical tools and AI but obviously, we don’t cover anything that was announced at Rising.
