The mission of CU Talks (talent, accountability, learning, knowledge, success) is to foster a culture of communication that highlights employee potential and creates an environment where employees can reach their potential through active engagement, empowerment and accountability.

CU TALKS is 冈本视频's approach to replacing more outdated "performance management" practices.

冈本视频 recognizes the value of regular, ongoing communication to create work environments where supervisors are more keenly aware of employee development needs and desires.

This communication includes status updates, mutual feedback and coaching, promotes agility, recognizes successes, and allows the employee and supervisor to identify opportunities and challenges to better ensure long-term employee success and retention. CU TALKS conversations include goal setting; however, they are designed to be more heavily focused on discussing opportunities for employee professional development and engagement.
