Implementing a new HRIS system like Workday is one of the most significant transformations an organisation can undertake. On paper, it’s a sleek promise of streamlined processes and smarter insights. In reality? It’s a juggling act of competing priorities, political pressures, shifting expectations, and the challenge of keeping everyday business moving while driving large-scale change.
At our upcoming HR, Talent & Safety Leadership Round Table, we’re joined by Tracey Green, Director of People and Culture at Wesley Mission Queensland, to unpack this exact balancing act. With more than two decades of senior leadership experience, Tracey has built a reputation for guiding large, complex organisations through change with a steady hand, commercial acumen, and deep care for people.
Tracey’s career spans health, aeromedical, corporate, and not-for-profit sectors. She has held executive HR leadership roles with organisations including the Cancer Council Queensland, Royal Flying Doctor Service, Ramsay Health Care, and now Wesley Mission Queensland, each with their own unique challenges around culture, compliance, workforce transformation, and scale. Across these environments, she has spearheaded major restructures, delivered high-value enterprise agreements, and overseen national HR system implementations. Her ability to reduce turnover, align people strategies with business objectives, and embed cultural frameworks has earned her recognition through multiple national HR and training awards.
In her session, Tracey will share candid lessons from managing a Workday rollout: how to communicate competing priorities without losing stakeholder trust, the art of pushing back diplomatically when PMO timelines clash with operational realities, and how to keep a seat at the steering committee table to ensure the people agenda remains front and centre. She’ll also explore the realities leaders often face but rarely discuss openly—scope creep, budget blowouts, and the hindsight that only comes with leading through complexity.
What sets Tracey apart is her capacity to influence while never losing sight of the human element. She brings the voice of people into rooms often dominated by technology and finance, ensuring that transformation doesn’t just deliver systems but fosters cultures where employees feel supported, heard, and engaged.

This Round Table is set to spark a frank and insightful discussion for leaders who are in the midst of implementation, navigating post go-live realities, or preparing for what’s next. It’s a rare opportunity to learn from Tracey’s experience, connect with peers who’ve weathered the same challenges, and take away practical strategies to apply in your own organisation.
We’re delighted to welcome Tracey Green to Move HQ and look forward to a morning of open conversation, shared lessons, and fresh perspectives over breakfast and coffee.
