    To drive employee satisfaction and retention, I created this initiative to revamp Cadence's corporate performance review process from an annual nerve-wracking obligation to a more frequent, interactive process that's co-driven by both managers and their team members. The initiative developed a new system that increases the number of reviews per year to four to allow for more timely assessments. It also redefines performance categories and simplifies ratings so employees better understand not only how their performance meets day-to-day expectations, but also how it matches up to their career trajectory and the milestones they hope to achieve. This increased transparency along with frequent, tangible feedback should help us meet our goals to develop highly capable, long-term employees.
