Workday's Value Management practice is our global business consulting team of ex-strategy consultants and industry experts driving Workday's growth and success. We collaborate extensively with senior business executives at prospects and customers to identify business challenges, to align investments with strategic objectives of the company and to create cases for change and roadmaps for success.
