Lynn Martin
General Manager, Workday Government
Lynn Martin’s most significant recent achievement is advancing Workday’s partnership with the intelligence community by introducing a secure SaaS HCM platform that centralizes HR data across the workforce and enables real-time, informed decision-making by agency leaders.
Building on that momentum, Martin led the creation of Workday Government, a wholly owned subsidiary dedicated to serving the federal government and accelerating modernization efforts. The launch formalizes Workday’s commitment to government digital transformation and positions the company as a strategic partner for large-scale federal HR modernization.
“Lynn is the ideal leader to guide our customers through their modernization journey,” said Carl Eschenbach, CEO at Workday. “Her unparalleled understanding of the public sector, combined with a proven ability to drive transformation and deliver measurable results, makes her uniquely suited to lead Workday Government. Lynn’s deep commitment to skills-based hiring and efficient HR and financial management perfectly aligns with our mission to help federal agencies thrive and be mission-ready in the changing world of work.”
Why Watch
Martin is focused on leading Workday Government to drive digital transformation and help federal agencies modernize outdated HR systems to increase efficiency, reduce costs and improve the federal employee experience. The company is building on long-standing trust with agency customers, including its milestone go-live with the Energy Department, the first cabinet-level agency to adopt a comprehensive HR SaaS solution for the entire enterprise. Workday Government will continue delivering tailored functionality and expertise, including enhanced security capabilities across IL4, IL5, Secret and Top Secret environments, to meet the evolving needs of federal customers.
Fun fact: Martin says the most rewarding role she has ever held is being a mother to three daughters and a grandmother to two boys. She enjoys time with her family and sailing on the Chesapeake Bay.
