From vendor responsiveness to URL dependencies hidden across the business, this conversation turns the theory of migration into a real-world playbook. If you’re an HRIS, Financial Systems, or Workday Admin planning (or dreading) your own move, this episode will help you prepare for the parts no checklist fully captures.For information on all of Keith's books and his coaching services, visit KeithBitikofer.com and https://books2read.com/keith-bitikoferConnect with Keith and Christian on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/keith-bitikofer/https://www.linkedin.com/in/christiandelcid/NEW BOOK- Workday Gold, Volume 3, Navigating Your Career.
