Workday Gold
Deep Dive or Wide Net? Workday Career Real Talk
In this episode of Workday Gold, Christian and I dive into a classic career question: Is it better to specialize deeply in a Workday module or be a generalist with broader reach? We talk through the pros and cons of both paths, share stories from our own journeys, and look at how company size, stage, and even your personality shape that decision.
We also explore how AI is shifting the landscape. As tools evolve, generalists may gain new superpowers—but specialists still play a critical role. Whether you’re early in your Workday journey or reevaluating your next move, this conversation offers practical insight into navigating your path.
Watch for my new book: Workday Gold, Navigating Your Career. Preorder it next week! Release date October 1, 2025.
