Managers turn to AI to rehearse pay freeze and poor performance talks
More managers are using AI to rehearse sensitive meetings such as delivering poor performance notices, excluding workers from pay rises or discussing dismissals. Tools range from text chatbots to voice roleplay, offering feedback on tone and clarity and sometimes tailoring scenarios to employee traits. Surveys show many managers struggle with how to say difficult messages. Privacy risks are rising as some enter names and performance details despite limited formal AI policies.
