Conduct stakeholder readiness assessments to identify friction points during the migration, recommend and implement agreed‑upon proactive mitigation plans. Design, write, and produce comprehensive Training Playbooks, Quick Reference Guides (QRGs), video vignettes, and job aids tailored to different user personas (Field Crew Leads, Managers, HR Administrators). Partner with People Services and operational teams to document "As‑Is" versus "To‑Be" HR workflows, ensuring all future‑state Dayforce processes are cleanly standardized, compliant with audit requirements, and published.
