What is the Workday "Talent Management" module designed for?

The Workday "Talent Management" module is specifically designed to support various elements of employee development and performance tracking within an organization. This includes facilitating performance reviews, where employees and managers can assess strengths and areas for improvement, and goal tracking, which allows for the alignment of individual contributions with organizational objectives. Additionally, the module assists in succession planning, ensuring that the organization has a strategy for developing future leaders and filling critical roles. Development plans are also a key feature, enabling the creation of personalized pathways for employee growth and skill enhancement.

The focus of the Talent Management module is very much on enhancing workforce potential and maintaining an engaged and high-performing workforce. This differentiates it from other modules in Workday that are centered on recruitment, benefits, compensation, or payroll management. Each of those functions serves a distinct purpose and is addressed in separate modules, highlighting the comprehensive approach Workday takes to human capital management.
