Most performance reviews focus on what's not working, which only makes the problem worse. In this first episode of a new four-part series, Katrina Purcell sits down with Ginaly Gonzalez, founder and CEO of Equivida and former talent strategy leader at Meta and Accenture, to break down why Strength-Based Modeling beats weakness-fixing every time. They dig into how to apply it even when your team is small and stretched thin, why the "squeaky wheel" dynamic quietly burns out your most reliable people, and the exact question to ask in your next 1-on-1 to uncover a strength someone doesn't even know they have. Ginaly also makes the case for treating people processes as real ROI - not a line item to figure out later.
