Workday Gold
Prism, Discovery Boards, and the Workday Tools Most People Walk Past, with Dylan Johnson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Dylan Johnson started his Workday journey as a college intern and landed his first professional job by walking into a regional user group event and meeting his future manager. Seven years later, he is a senior reporting analyst at a 25,000-person global company, a Carolinas RUG board member, and one of the more practical voices on Workday reporting and career development in the ecosystem. In this episode, he joins Keith for an honest conversation about what he has learned, which tools he thinks are being overlooked, and what he would tell someone just getting started.
Dylan and Keith dig into the generalist-versus-specialist divide in Workday careers, what Prism Analytics actually is, and how to use it without misleading end users, why Discovery Boards and Worksheets are two of the most underused tools in most Workday tenants, and where AI in Workday is likely to make a real difference near-term and where it is not ready yet. Practical, specific, and grounded in real experience from both sides of the career spectrum.
