@Coryanthony OK, have to make a few assumptions here because I don't know what your data really looks like, but try this:

Workdays Total = 
  VAR __Workdays = [Workdays] //this is your existing measure
  VAR __Table = 
    SUMMARIZE(
      ALLSELECTED('03 SLA Audited Data Only'), 
     [Auditor First Name], 
     "__Measure", [Workdays]
  )
  VAR __Result = 
    IF(
      HASONEVALUE('03 SLA Audited Data Only'[Auditor First Name]), 
      __Workdays, 
      SUMX(__Table, [__Measure]
    )
RETURN
  __Result
