What is changing?
Workday introduced Work Intelligence on October 13 as a new work-design tool. Instead of treating a job as a single title, it breaks the role into tasks and maps those tasks to required skills, showing where AI may provide augmentation, automation, or support role redesign.
The product draws on Workday Skills Cloud, used by more than 3,450 customers and built on an ontology of more than 75,000 canonical skills. It connects with Decision Intelligence for adjacent skills and internal development options, and with Sana-powered Workday Learning for personalized learning paths.
Workday stresses that the tool does not make decisions about people; it shows leaders how work and skills are changing. Work Intelligence is currently available only to early-access Workday HCM customers.
