Field update does not trigger workflow rule

Hello,
 
I am new to Salesforce and need some help with workflows.
I have one workflow rule that will update the opportunity stage, auto advancing it to the next stage based on certain criteria.
I have another workflow rule that kicks off workflow once the opportunity stage is set to a certain value.
 
If I manually set the stage to the new value the second workflow rule fires.
But having this automated by the first workflow rule is not working.
 
Is there a workaround to this?
 
Thanks for any help.

Heloo Lisa Sev,

Workflow rules can only be triggered by user interaction. A user would be required to click on Save before it could trigger another workflow rule. This may have a solution with Apex and triggers, I am not sure if they can be triggered by system modification.
