237. A Rebel Alliance Approach to Performance Appraisal Systems

Send us a text

In our latest episode where we take the wisdom from Star Wars and apply to our world of work - and in this one we’re joining the Rebel Alliance to rethink how we approach performance appraisal systems. Joined by HR leader Kerri Fionda-Brookes, she inspires us to channel the Rebels: united with a shared purpose—despite different skills, styles, and backgrounds. We explore how performance reviews can become more human, empowering, and fit for the modern workplace.

We’ll dive into:

• Why traditional appraisal systems often miss the mark
• How to create a feedback culture rooted in trust and shared goals
• What emotional intelligence and team alignment can do for ongoing performance

Because when people feel seen, heard, and part of something bigger, they don’t just comply—they commit.
