9-Box Performance Grid
Manages employee performance and potential using a proven talent management method.
Workflow Steps
Step 1 - Performance & Potential Data Input
Managers assess their direct reports on both past performance (what they achieved) and future potential (how they might grow) using a standardized rating scale.
Step 2 - Talent Calibration Meeting
Managers meet in a calibration session, facilitated by HR, to discuss their ratings, challenge biases, and ensure consistency and fairness across the organization.
Step 3 - Plot Employees on the Grid
Following calibration, HR plots each employee on the 9-box grid based on the final, calibrated ratings.
Step 4 - Develop Differentiated Action Plans
Based on an employee's placement on the grid, specific development, retention, or transition plans are created (e.g., stretch assignments for high-potentials, performance improvement plans for low-performers).
