​What does it take to build high-performing teams in the age of AI?

​Performance management is entering a new era. Traditional approaches no longer match how today’s organizations operate.

​AI is accelerating how teams work, hybrid models are reshaping collaboration, and fast-scaling companies need approaches that support fast learning cycles and continuous adaptation.

​Leaders now need systems that adapt quickly, surface real insights, and create the conditions for continuous growth.

​

​We'll sit-down for practical discussion with:

• ​Vicki Marchington- Chief People Officer at Faculty

• ​Laura Gonzalez Florez - Chief of Staff & Head of People at Synthesia

• ​Kristo Ovaska - Founder & CEO at Taito.ai (previously founder at Smartly.io)

​Real lessons on:

• ​Scaling isn’t just adding headcount - how to design systems for it?

• ​How to build a culture of performance and growth?

• ​What a good performance system looks like in practice at different stages, and in different functions?

• ​How to assess people in the AI age?
