Why Annual Performance Reviews Are Dying — And What's Replacing Them

Global employee engagement just hit a 10-year low, and the annual performance review is a big part of why. In this episode, we dig into the data showing why once-a-year feedback cycles are broken — and how AI-powered continuous performance management is stepping in to fill the gap. We look at real enterprise results from Google and IBM, unpack three specific AI capabilities making this shift practical at scale, and give HR leaders a clear-eyed warning about what happens when AI gets deployed without the right culture behind it. Because the question is no longer whether annual reviews will be replaced. It's whether your organisation will move fast enough to matter.
