Change Agent Network members help build readiness by:
- Understanding the Workday implementation scope and key project decisions
- Communicating with your departments, colleagues, and peers in alignment with project activities
- Learning the benefits of using Workday
- Collecting and sharing meaningful feedback from the campus community
Change Agent Network members contribute to the project by:
- Acting as a change advocate and champion for transformation
- Participating in a 1-hour monthly meeting: we will keep you informed of how the project is going and ask you where you think we should be targeting our communication efforts
- Bringing news of the Workday project back to your departments, colleagues, and peers across the institution: we will provide talking points and targeted communications for the areas you represent and you’ll get early access to demos!
- Sharing feedback about the Workday project from your departments, colleagues, and peers: we will ask for your participation in User Readiness Review testing (October 2025), and reviewing how-to guides and change communications (fall 2025 through launch)
We welcome new members at any point in the project. Nominate yourself or a colleague to join the Workday CAN!
