##### Session: The Perfect Storm for Bad Performance Conversations

*June 30, 2025 at 12:45PM in the Expo*  
Join Acorn PLMS to explore the real reasons performance reviews often fall flat, why today’s learning systems aren’t bridging the gap, and how that disconnect leaves leaders unsupported.

##### Visit the Acorn Gallery in the Expo at Booth #3719

Our collection captures what we've known for a while: people want performance conversations that tell them how they're doing and how to improve.
