It's that time of year again. In some form or another, you and your colleagues are gearing up for the annual review. The process is often stressful, time-consuming, and far from streamlined. You’re juggling data collection, feedback requests, drafting performance reviews, and planning for next year—all while trying to make it meaningful for your team and impactful for the business.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Many of us have struggled with the inefficiencies of the review process: endless emails, scattered feedback, and the pressure of writing performance summaries that feel both accurate and thoughtful. It doesn’t have to be this way.
​​
Here's how AI Can Help.

-
Saves time

A note to HR managers
For organizations with well-structured review processes, we recommend that employees and managers continue working within those established guidelines. AI can be used within your process.
Our message is that AI is a powerful tool, but it’s important to remember that it is an assistant, not a replacement. You—the manager or employee—remain 100% responsible for the content you report and communicate.
In the case of reviews, AI can be a valuable tool in:
-
Providing a second opinion on the structure and tone of your reviews.
-
Helping you organize and synthesize feedback from co-workers.
-
Identifying potential biases or triggering language in the feedback you providing.
-
Suggesting thoughtful and empathetic language when delivering constructive feedback.
-
We will also highlight tools for practice and role play for managers who may be new or need support
We also stress the importance of protecting sensitive company data when using AI tools. We stress the importance of respecting the company's AI and data policies when engaging with any AI tools.
If you have any questions or would like a customize session, we're happy to discuss them with you. We're here to ensure that AI enhances your review process while keeping it responsible and effective.

"Aside from the beyond user-friendly, ease of entry into Chat GPT, I thought the sense of community and the way you interacted with the group and the individuals was super welcoming and made everyone feel very comfortable and willing to comment and ask questions, which is quite a rarity." -
