Performance management is overdue for evolution. Traditional review cycles weren’t built for the pace of today’s work and performance is now defined by how effectively organizations enable people to learn, adapt, grow and apply skills in real time.

In this session, Lena Finch, VP of people and culture at Allego, shares how leading organizations are redefining performance by linking performance expectations directly to skills, coaching and day-to-day work.

She’ll explore how to:

  • Connect performance expectations to skills-based development and meaningful career growth.
  • Enable managers to consistently coach, develop and reinforce learning.
  • Translate learning into real-world behaviors that drive measurable business impact.
  • Move beyond one-size-fits-all models toward adaptive, people-centered performance practices.
