Joining Steve to give their initial reactions are Chelsea Hall, Workiva Industry Principal for SEC reporting and financial reporting, and Mark Mellen, Workiva Industry Principal for sustainability reporting.

Switching companies is one thing. Switching roles is another. Chelsea Hall was a corporate controller and Alyssa Zucker was a chief sustainability officer before they joined Workiva as industry principals. Today their backgrounds help Workiva develop solutions specifically tailored to serve people in Chelsea’s and Alyssa’s former roles.

While they’re still new to Workiva, we asked their advice for stepping into a new job and a role that not everyone knows exists.

When Alex Davis followed a former boss to a 7-year-old company, he found it had different data management challenges than the legacy insurer where he once worked.

We caught up with Matt Kelly of Radical Compliance at the annual Workiva Amplify conference for his thoughts on that and a look at what the Securities and Exchange Commission said about SolarWinds. Matt’s opinions in the podcast are his own, and do not represent Workiva.
