This week on Tapod we sit down for a special episode with Michael De Graaf—Global Head of Talent at Workday. It’s not often we get to talk to someone from a talent team who uses their own solution (customer zero). Mike is as close as you can get to the product, and we get an opportunity to understand how Workday test and trial. We also touch on acquisitions and how solutions integrate or stand alone. It’s a very interesting discussion that will benefit every talent leader.
