Has anyone attempted to 'reboot' a struggling Data Governance Program?  I am starting a 2nd reboot effort.  If anyone has successfully done this, I would love to hear more or even connect.

I've done this successfully at a few organizations. I basically start by identifying the key data domains and identify who is involved. Find the primary business pain points for those domains and prioritize where to start. If we already have a DG manager, assess whether they are the right fit (they are the captain of the ship so if the program is failing, they may not have the skillset or the right level of influence). We also built a data governance playbook to help standardize and guide how different teams "turn on" data governance in their areas, which has helped. Plus, getting leadership to talk about the importance of high quality data, accountability, and the data governance program can give you more influence power to reboot. Happy to chat more!

We are happy to connect.   We are taking some time to *refresh* basically *reboot* - we realized the expectations with the business were not aligned and connecting it to topics like AI, automation and other digital capabilities was just not landing :-)

We are in the early stages of planning a Workday Financials implementation and are evaluating the best approach for a MVP deployment. Given the scale and complexity of Workday Financials, we're particularly interested in understanding if anyone recommends or observes as best practices for MVP deployment models. Specifically, we’d like to know: Does anyone have a suggestion a phased or modular rollout for core financial modules (e.g., GL, AP, AR)? Is there a baseline configuration or functional scope typically considered MVP for Workday Financials? How do organizations balance quick time-to-value versus long-term scalability and integration when adopting Workday Financials as MVP?

We are currently seeking your support in identifying a reliable implementation partner for the Workday Financial Management Module. We had a service provider start the implementation; however, the project has encountered significant challenges and has not progressed as expected.
Given the critical nature of this module and our need to get the implementation back on track, we would appreciate your help in recommending experienced partners who have a strong track record with Workday Finance.
