Workday Product Strategy Workshop with Gibson Biddle
The Product Strategy Workshop starts at 9 am on Wednesday, 1/22/25, and we will be done by noon. If you want to stay for a bit, there will be an extra half-hour Q & A at the end.
Our second session will be on Feb 6 from 9-11 am PT, with an extra half-hour for questions afterward.
Pre-formatted Google Slides to prepare for Feb 6
