That idea carried into the Innovation Keynote, where Dayforce unveiled its Agentic HCM Platform, designed to help organizations reduce complexity, take action, and move work forward.“Making work life better is about finding harmony among the tasks and to-dos — to create space for the work you’re meant to do,” said Eric Glass, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer at Dayforce. “Workestra captured a reality we all recognize: work is often noisy and complex. Our opportunity with AI is to cut through that complexity, and create more space to focus on meaningful work.”This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.The performance concept was developed in collaboration with creative agency Rethink.“Studies show that working professionals are interrupted by alerts and notifications 275 times a day — that’s once every two minutes. By turning these chaotic sounds into a classical composition, Workestra highlights how Dayforce has the potential to transform workplace chaos into harmony,” said Don Shelford, Executive Creative Director at Rethink.Watch the full performance on YouTube.Learn about the Dayforce Agentic HCM Platform hereRead more about innovations announced at Dayforce Discover hereAbout Dayforce Dayforce makes work life better.
