The Challenge
A consulting firm with 70 employees experienced rising turnover and declining morale due to a lack of performance management structure and career development planning.

Managers struggled to deliver consistent feedback, and employees had no clear growth paths or measurable performance metrics. Annual reviews were subjective and often delayed. The absence of career development tools led to disengagement and talent loss to competitors.
