Section 1
The premise
AI is a useful prep partner for the hard conversations of management: it can help you structure feedback, prepare for a difficult 1-1, or draft a performance improvement plan — but the trust is built only in the room.
What AI does well here
- Structuring feedback using SBI (Situation-Behavior-Impact) or similar frameworks
- Drafting agenda templates for skip-levels and team retrospectives
- Pre-mortem-ing a difficult conversation by listing how it could go wrong
- Generating questions that surface what is actually going on with a report
What AI cannot do
- Know the specific person, their history, and their current state
- Replace your judgment on hire/fire/promote calls
- Build the trust that makes the hard conversations possible at all
