The future of managing and rewarding performance
Traditional performance systems were built for a different world of work. Explore how AI is reshaping what organizations measure, recognize, and reward—and why the future is shifting from visibility to value.

As AI reshapes how work gets done, organizations are rethinking what performance means, how employee contributions are recognized, and how rewards reinforce value creation. Drawing on a global survey of more than 4,000 managers and employees, and customer consortium of 40+ performance and rewards leaders, this report explores three shifts shaping the future of performance and rewards. It introduces the concept of moving from visibility to value, offering a framework for expanding what counts as performance, broadening how contribution is understood, and rethinking how rewards are determined in an increasingly dynamic, distributed, and AI-enabled world.
Fast facts
The future of performance and rewards is about expanding what is seen, understood, and valued. This enables organizations to make decisions that are fair, motivating, and aligned with where work drives the greatest value.
