She said that driving the change is the company's intent to have "a continuous exchange between an employee and a leader" - not just a formal review once or twice a year. More frequent feedback is necessary, Seabrook, to keep up with the pace of change in business. "It's very important that the people know, 'Where am I? How am I doing? How am I developing?'" she said.
