Case Study: Telstra achieves agile workforce transformation with Workday Adaptive Planning

How to empower and motivate an agile organization

Telstra needed a better way to support its move to a fully agile operating model, with workforce planning, skills visibility, and process simplification all becoming critical. To meet that challenge, Telstra used Workday Adaptive Planning as part of a broader Workday HR solution to unify scattered tools and improve strategic workforce decision-making.

Workday Adaptive Planning helped Telstra consolidate 60 disparate tools and applications into one solution, enabling dashboards and analytics that delivered timely insights across the business. The results were significant: Telstra logged 20,000 skills, supported more than 17,000 employees in adopting agile ways of working, achieved over 90% of agile teams at level 3 maturity, and reduced costs by $2.7 billion.
