The excitement for Workday Rising 2024 is palpable within our team at BGSF. As a Workday Services Partner, we understand that this event is a cornerstone for the Workday community, and our team is eager to dive into the wealth of knowledge and networking opportunities that await in Las Vegas. Here’s what Anne-Marie Geisser, Kimberly Simpson, and Garrett Brzozowiec had to say about their expectations and goals for this year’s conference.


Embracing the In-Person Experience at Workday Rising 2024


For Anne-Marie Geisser, Senior Managing Director, Workday Rising 2024 marks a return to the in-person experience she first enjoyed in 2019. After participating virtually in recent years, she’s eager to reconnect with the unique energy of the Workday community.


“The energy of the Workday community is like nothing else. You can't help but smile the whole time. Everyone is happy to be there, eager to learn from industry peers, meet new people, and have fun."

This year, Anne-Marie’s primary goal is to facilitate meaningful connections within the Workday ecosystem. “If I can connect at least one client to another or to one of our certified consultants at the conference, it will be a win,” she says. Additionally, she’s excited to see how AI innovations discussed at last year’s virtual event have progressed. Her focus will also be on sessions related to finance and reporting, which are vital to our partners.


Exploring New Workday Offerings and Enhancing Client Solutions


Kimberly Simpson, Managing Director of Delivery, brings a wealth of experience to Workday Rising 2024, having attended her first conference in 2018. For Kimberly, the event is an invaluable opportunity to stay on the cutting edge of Workday’s latest developments and to network with fellow professionals.


“What stands out the most to me about Workday Rising is the energy and enthusiasm from industry professionals. There’s something cool about being surrounded by like-minded people, all excited to learn, share, and grow professionally."

This year, Kimberly is particularly focused on exploring new Workday features, such as Workday Extend, Workday Adaptive, and Accounting Center. She believes these tools have the potential to significantly enhance our clients’ existing setups. Among the many sessions on her radar, she’s most excited to hear from higher education CIOs about how they’ve successfully leveraged Workday to streamline their IT processes.


Expanding Networks and Learning About Workday’s Future


Attending his second Workday Rising, Garrett Brzozowiec, Senior Client Services Manager, is particularly eager to build his network within the Workday community. After a positive experience at last year’s event in San Francisco, he’s looking forward to the opportunities that this year’s conference in Las Vegas will bring.


“Workday is a very close-knit community, and I am passionate about meeting more of my peers face-to-face. The beauty of a conference like Workday Rising is you never know who you are going to meet.”

Garrett is also excited to learn more about the future of Workday, particularly regarding new products like Workday Extend. He sees this knowledge as essential for positioning BGSF to better support our clients with innovative solutions tailored to their needs.


Looking Forward to Las Vegas


Beyond the conference, our team is also looking forward to exploring Las Vegas. Whether it’s catching a show, indulging in the city’s culinary offerings, or experiencing the vibrant atmosphere, the team is eager to make the most of their time outside the conference as well.


BGSF’s Commitment to Connecting, Learning, and Growing at Workday Rising 2024


As our team at BGSF heads to Workday Rising 2024, we’re not just attending to learn; we’re also focused on connecting with others and contributing to the Workday community. From fostering connections between clients to exploring new features that will enhance our service offerings, our team is ready to make the most of this year’s conference.


We’re excited to see how the insights and relationships we develop at Workday Rising 2024 will help us better serve our clients and continue to grow within the Workday ecosystem.
