Quantify Your AI Impact for Performance Reviews

Learn a framework for communicating impact and start capturing it in real time.

Before You Start

Goal: Leave with a framework for communicating AI impact and start the habit of capturing it in real time.

Watch: How to Quantify Your AI Impact for Performance Reviews — Members are encouraged to watch beforehand, but a quick recap at the meeting works too.

Most people don't track their AI impact, and that's a missed opportunity. Learn how to capture time saved, measure gains in quality and volume of work, and write about it compellingly when it counts.

👋 Member Updates · 10 mins

Go around your Circle and share personal updates. Keep them brief and focused on significant changes or important decisions since the last time you met. It's OK not to have one every month. If you have a One Action update from last time, share that too.

🧊 Icebreaker · 10 mins

Invite everyone in the group to share. Keep answers to one or two minutes per person.

Think back over the last month. What's one way you saved time using AI, and how much time did you save?

🏋️ Activity 1 · 10 mins

Start Your AI Impact Log

  1. Jot down 3+ ways you used AI in the last week or month.
  2. Estimate how much time AI saved on each task.
  3. Think about the other tasks this enabled you to do. The most compelling AI impact stories aren't simply, "I saved time on X." They're, "because I saved time on X, I was able to do Y, which led to Z."

Discuss as a group:

  1. What did you learn from this activity about your impact?
  2. How has AI increased your output?
  3. What other tasks has AI freed you up to do, and did those tasks have business impact?

🏋️ Activity 2 · 10 mins

Use AI to Automate Your Weekly Impact Log

Instead of trying to remember all your wins, you can have AI help you capture them each week. Try inputting this prompt into AI:

  1. Review all of my work from the last week that you can access—my emails, messages, documents, tasks, and meeting notes. (If your chosen platform doesn't have access to any of these, upload some recent meeting notes and task lists.)
  2. Identify where AI helped me work faster. Estimate how much time I saved.
  3. Based on this, write some brief log entries about the impact of my AI use that I could use in a performance review.

Discuss as a group:

  1. How accurate was the AI-created log?
  2. What AI impacts did it remind you of that you'd forgotten?
  3. How could you edit the prompt to improve the output?

🎯 One Action · 10 mins

Commit to one concrete action — big or small — you'll take before next meeting. Go around the Circle and share (1 minute or less per member). Vocalizing it helps hold each other accountable.

Add to your Weekly Impact Log every week between now and the next meeting. Come back ready to share some entries that might be strong enough for your performance review.

📅 Wrap-Up · 5 mins

Before you break, plan your next meeting and close on an energetic note. Go around your Circle one by one and finish the sentence:

Now I am feeling… (choose one word).

  • Set the day, time, and location
  • Choose the next topic or resource
  • Confirm who's leading the discussion
  • Decide how you'll stay in touch in between
