In March 2005, two former managers of PeopleSoft set about redeeming themselves and their team from the cleaven of their transactions during their Oracle acquisition. David Duffield, then Vice President of PeopleSoft, used the experience to stimulate their attempts to succeed in the tech world of companies and Aneel Bhusri, Product Management Chief.. David and Aneel have founded Workday, a company offering software for financial and capital management in a SaaS model. Since 1987, David had founded PeopleSoft almost two decades ago and before its acquisition by Oracle in January 2005, it has developed into the world’s second largest application software company.

This vibrant pair has a chemical industry and this chemistry has enableDay to rapidly hit $1.0 billion in turnover per quarter, and to become one of the world’s fastest growing tech companies. According to Aneel, their approach still focuses on intensive customers and says “We continue to attract new customers and many of our existing customers are growing with us. Our customer loyalty is still one of the best in business software and our customers’ success is at the very heart of our long-term business plan.” Moreover, the two are great at deciding which companies to acquire to expand their solution set.
