What's Inside Each Issue

One Workday move per month — fully unpacked.

Every issue leads with one specific Workday negotiation move we ran in the previous month — anonymized, but with the structure intact. Sometimes it's a renewal tactic. Sometimes it's a contract-clause swap. Sometimes it's a competitive-evaluation framing that shifted a price point.

You'll also get pricing benchmarks for two modules each issue, a clause-of-the-month section (a Workday clause we'd push back on), and a short read of the broader HCM/financials market — moves by SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle, ADP, and UKG that change Workday's posture.

The brief is written for procurement, CHRO, CFO, and CIO readers who hold the Workday relationship. It's deliberately not for analysts or implementers.
