Introduction

Deloitte's deep industry knowledge in Workday played a vital role in transforming the performance management (PM) operations and systems of an US-based multinational corporation and technology company. This comprehensive effort reshaped the client’s PM program, addressing matters like consistency, pay-performance alignment, user experience, and leadership capability.
