Workday launches Work Intelligence to map AI’s impact on job tasks
Workday’s new Work Intelligence breaks job roles into tasks and tracks how AI is changing them. It connects skills gaps with hiring-versus-training cost models and personalized learning paths.
What changed
Workday unveiled Work Intelligence, an enterprise product built on its Skills Cloud that continuously maps tasks, required skills and AI’s impact on work. It integrates with Workday Decision Intelligence to model developing existing employees versus hiring externally. Identified skills gaps also feed into Workday Learning powered by Sana for tailored upskilling paths.
Why it may matter for your work
HR teams could use task-level information to plan training or redesign roles rather than relying on broad job titles. Linking those gaps to cost models may help HR and finance compare hiring with developing existing staff.
What it can actually do
Map tasks and skills within roles; track changes in employees’ task allocation and skill profiles; benchmark against aggregated customer skills data; connect skills gaps to cost modeling and personalized learning.
Limits to check
The product is advisory: neither Work Intelligence nor Decision Intelligence makes workforce decisions. The page says early access is available now, but its availability section is cut off before full eligibility details. Pricing is not stated.
“The product tracks shifts in how employees actually spend their time across tasks, how skill profiles inside the workforce are changing, and whether employees are moving into new roles and responsibilities as AI takes over others.”From the linked source page
