In March 2021, Workday completed its acquisition of Peakon to help provide better insights into employee experience, career development, and belonging and diversity initiatives. With real-time visibility into employee sentiment and productivity -- and their drivers -- Workday is enabling organizations to turn these insights into action and elevate the voice of their employees.

Workday has also delivered product innovations that offer customers a simple, connected, and more engaging employee experience with Workday Everywhere. By bringing Workday tasks and insights directly into digital workspaces where employees are already doing most of their collaboration and communicating, they can quickly access Workday without having to toggle between different applications.

Increased Investments in Skills
Amid the recovery from the pandemic-generated recession, skills have emerged as a critical component to managing and optimizing talent.

Organizations are continuing to adopt skills innovations from Workday. To date, more than 1,000 organizations are using Skills Cloud, which is included with Workday HCM, to more effectively hire, engage, and retain their workforce. As customers embrace a skills-based people strategy -- where workers are valued and rewarded for their skills and how they apply them to create organizational value -- they can incorporate skills across Workday HCM including Workday RecruitingWorkday LearningTalent Marketplace, and Career Hub for a connected talent experience.
