Self-Sufficient by Design: Workday Enablement Done Right | Aaron Cheney, PCG

In this episode of Change Enablers, the spotlight is on Aaron Cheney, a Digital Media Producer at Public Consulting Group (PCG) and an avid tech enthusiast.

Aaron's career journey is quite fascinating; he transitioned from working at a religious nonprofit to taking on roles at PCG, initially in marketing and Salesforce training before moving to the corporate tech department. Aaron's approach to work fundamentally revolves around empowering individuals to solve their own problems.

This episode focuses on Aaron's experience with multiple Workday rollouts at PCG (human capital management and financial management products). He shares the intricacies of both transitions, noting the prior chaotic state of their financial management systems with multiple disconnected systems and fragmented reporting.

The implementation of Workday brought a dramatic increase in efficiency and productivity, although not without its challenges. Aaron shares the extensive preparation involved, including over 50 team members working for about 18 months.

- effective content creation by identifying your target audience
- combatting challenges in change management and training implementation
