A performance review is a formal assessment of an employee’s work, results, and development. AI can reduce the paperwork by organizing information, drafting balanced feedback, and helping managers spend more time with their teams. section 15.0 section 15.5
A practical AI-assisted review process can include:
- Keep a separate chat for each employee so relevant context stays together. section 15.3
- Use notes, goals, and other detailed information to support writing and analysis. section 15.3 section 15.5
- Start with self-evaluations, then examine tone for unintended bias and phrase constructive criticism clearly. section 15.3 section 15.3
- Turn goals into SMART goals—specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound—and suggest ways to meet or exceed them. section 1.1
Review-writing task
Provide the employee’s self-evaluation and supporting notes to an AI model. Ask it to organize the evidence, identify positive and negative tone, flag possible bias, and draft professional constructive feedback.
