Managers tap ChatGPT for reviews

Ask anyone in your group chats and I'd wager that at least one person regularly uses ChatGPT to write their performance reviews. Some of the folks I spoke to asked for anonymity, but others insist there's no shame it. "Not everybody has a college degree," Stephen Lytle, SHRM-SCP told me. "Not everybody is taught how to write annual evaluations." ?? Lee Gonzales, director of engineering uses the shortcut regularly and even shares his own?performance review prompts?for ChatGPT. But like most ways people are using generative AI these days, there's a trick to it. https://lnkd.in/gs3GSAbw

This is the thing with tech-savvy job seekers: they'll leverage what they know to speed up the process. 1 in 3 job seekers say they turn to AI for enhanced resumes or cover letters. 1 in 4 go a step further and let AI apply for jobs on their behalf. Once hired, employees can expect managers to return the favor. More managers are also firing up generative AI to accelerate the performance review cycle. It's all part of a major, somewhat gradual shift toward an AI takeover of repetitive tasks, prompting leaders to pursue adoption and the improvements it can bring. https://lnkd.in/eQkBxfiQ

ChatGPT writing is everywhere now.

Last year I used AI to help me write end-of-year reviews for myself and 4 of my peers. The workflow I created helped me to write them faster AND more effectively, while avoiding the usual difficulty of staring at a blank page, struggling to work out what I wanted to say. I want to share this process with you, both to help and to start a discussion on how it can be improved for even more efficient and pain-free peer reviewing. Click the article ?? for the full step-by-step guide including prompts for ChatGPT, and if you used AI to help write your performance reviews, let me know! How did your method differ from mine? Comment below and let's develop an even easier process for efficiently writing effective reviews during the next cycle. #ai #performancereviews #peerreview #chatgpt #transcription

In what has become a daunting or monotonous task, some managers and employees are using ChatGPT for writing performance reviews. ??Some are openly bragging about it.

Would you rather receive performance feedback from a human or from artificial intelligence? That seems such a strange question and one I had not pondered until recently. For AI to be useful (think about self-driving cars, aviation, and medicine), trust must be present. And when it comes to evaluating trust and AI, the most important concepts are the same as evaluating trust in humans: vulnerability and risk. Whether we trust AI depends to a large extent on our relationship with AI. When we think of AI as a partner or collaborator we share similar cognitive and emotional behaviors as we do with humans. In fact, when working with computers or AI, people tend to start naming their systems. (Hopefully, no one is calling them HAL anymore). As we give AI information and it responds with answers or insights that prove reliable and provide those answers in a way that seems human-like, then our level of trust increases. In areas where the potential payoff is higher than what would be expected from another human, then we are often more willing to delegate that task to AI. Yet, when the required decision-making process has a higher level of error or risk, we still prefer to have a human as our partner. Further, when it comes to accepting recommendations, the confidence we have in ourselves is often more important than the confidence or trust we place in AI. Except when it comes to feedback on our performance. In that situation, humans would rather have feedback from AI which is often perceived to be less biased and less emotional. Go figure. Ultimately, fostering trust in AI involves accepting vulnerability, working to build and rebuild trust when necessary, and using common sense when evaluating processes and outcomes. By embracing this mindset, we can harness the potential of AI to enhance performance feedback while upholding ethical standards and preserving the human touch. (Adapted from: Henrique, B.

The annual review is no longer enough to drive performance improvement. Performance management is a core HR responsibility, but the landscape is evolving. The need for continuous feedback, coaching, and development has become paramount. Here are three ways ChatGPT can assist in performance management strategies. ? Real-time Feedback and Coaching ?
