Redwood: Manager Performance Evaluation Assistant Agent
The Manager Performance Evaluation Assistant Agent is an AI-powered digital assistant to help you view your team’s performance. This digital assistant enables you to view performance information through a secure and conversational interface.
Built on Oracle’s AI Agent framework and powered by advanced large language models (LLMs), the agent interprets your natural language questions and delivers accurate, role-based information within your security permissions.
The highlights of the Manager Performance Evaluation Assistant Agent are:
- Preconfigured: Ready to use immediately—no setup or configuration required.
- Secure: Employee access strictly follows your data access and role privileges.
- Context-Sensitive: It’s aware of the current date and keeps track of the chat.
- Conversational: Responds to your requests in natural language, making it easy and intuitive to find information.
You can use this agent through a guided journey. For example, you can invoke it from a guided journey on the performance document or All-in-One Evaluations pages.
Here are some sample questions that the agent can answer:
- Rank team members overall performance for the current year
- Compare team members performance over time for example, the last 3 years
- Identify any goals assigned to my team that have poor performance
- Identify team members who aren't reaching the target proficiency for their competencies
Business Benefit: By providing quick and relevant information, the Manager Performance Evaluation Assistant saves time, improves decision-making, and helps to easily view your team’s performance. It eliminates the need to navigate to multiple pages for answers.
