Case Study: Kennedys achieves rapid global adoption of continuous performance development with Clear Review

Kennedys Implements Global Performance Development

Kennedys, a London-headquartered global law firm of around 2,000 people across 29 countries, needed to replace a paper-based appraisal system after rapid growth left inconsistent performance management across offices. HR Director Caroline Wilson sought an easy, accessible continuous performance approach and, after reviewing options, selected Clear Review’s online continuous performance management software to drive better, more frequent conversations and consistent feedback firm-wide.

Clear Review delivered a simple, user-friendly platform and supported a global rollout with senior-leader buy-in and local change management. The result was rapid adoption — within weeks one in three employees had completed a check-in and more than half had sent feedback — stronger cross-border team communication, integration with internal recognition (GEMs), and clearer, more balanced performance conversations that help identify issues and develop talent across the business.
