The #1 Mistake Organizations Make
Most organizations jump straight into Workday configuration without defining how position management should actually work for their business.
The result?
- Finance, HR, and Recruiting can't agree on who approves what
- Position changes take weeks because nobody documented the process
- Managers create workarounds because the system is "too complicated"
- Your team spends 18 months in constant cleanup mode
After leading position management redesign at Slack and supporting 40+ implementations at Kandor, I've watched this pattern play out repeatedly.
The organizations that avoid this chaos don't have more sophisticated Workday configurations. They have clearer frameworks.
They answer four fundamental questions before they configure anything: Who owns what?
What are the processes?
When do things happen?
Why are we doing it this way?
That's exactly what this framework template helps you do.
