Bell Curves vs. “Rising Strings”

A healthy bell curve might look like this:

≤ 5% Distinguished performance 30% Superior performance 50% Fully successful performance 10% Partially successful performance ≤ 5% Unsuccessful performance

Traditional Performance Appraisal Grading Scale

5—Superior

4—Exceeds Expectations

3—Meets Expectations

2—Partially Meets Expectations

1—Fails to Meet Expectations 8

Page 9: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

A. Revised Grading Scale

5 - Distinguished Performance and Role Model: Clearly and consistently demonstrates extraordinary and exceptional accomplishment in all major areas of responsibility. Others rarely equal performance of this caliber in similar roles.4 - Superior/Highly Effective Performance: Performance is continually and consistently superior and regularly goes beyond what is expected. Performance consistently exceeds expectations.

9

Page 10: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Revised Grading Scale (cont.)

3 - Fully Successful/Effective Performance: Performance consistently meets the critical requirements of the position, and the individual continually performs at the level expected.2 - Partially Successful Performance/Needs Improvement: Performance does not consistently meet or occasionally falls below what is required of the position; improvement in specific areas is required.1 - Unsuccessful/Unacceptable Performance: Performance fails to meet minimum expectations for this role, and immediate and sustained improvement is mandatory.

10

Page 11: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

B. Rater Definition Consistency Tool

5 - Distinguished Performance (< 5%)Role model status. Potential successor to immediate supervisor/highly promotable now/possibility of skipping two steps in career progression. Performed above and beyond under exceptional circumstances during the review period. Generally recognized #1 (Top 5%) ranking among peer group.

11

Page 12: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Rater Consistency Tool (cont.)

4 - Superior Performance (30%)

Overall excellent performer and easy to work with—smart, dedicated, ambitious, and cooperative, but may not yet be ready to promote because there’s still a lot to learn in the current role. May not have been exposed to exceptional circumstances or opportunities that would warrant a higher designation. However, definitely an exceptional contributor who exceeds people’s expectations in many ways and is a long-term “keeper”— just needs more time in current role to grow and develop and gain additional exposure.

12

Page 13: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Rater Consistency Tool (cont.)

(3a) Consistently performs well and is reliable, courteous, and dedicated. Always tries hard and looks for ways of acquiring new skills but doesn’t necessarily perform with distinction. Works to live rather than lives to work. May not stand out as a rarity among peers but consistently contributes to dept’s efforts and is a valuable member of team.

(3b) Meets expectations overall but may be challenged in particular performance areas. May perform well because of tenure in role and familiarity with workload but does not appear ambitious about learning new things or expanding beyond his comfort zone. Conduct may at times be problematic / challenge of working well on a team.

13

Page 14: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Rater Consistency Tool (cont.)

2 - Partially Successful Performance (10%)

Fails to meet minimum performance or conduct expectations in specific areas of responsibility. Is not able to demonstrate consistent improvement. May have received significant corrective action during review period. Lacks requisite technical skills or knowledge relating to particular aspects of role. May perform well but conduct is so problematic that the entire year’s performance review score may be invalidated. “PIP” required. A partial merit increase or bonus may be awarded.

14

Page 15: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Rater Consistency Tool (cont.)

1 - Unsuccessful Performance (< 5%)

Fails to meet minimum performance or conduct expectations for the role in general. The individual’s position is in immediate jeopardy of being lost. The performance review may be accompanied by corrective action documentation stating that failure to demonstrate immediate and sustained improvement will result in dismissal. No merit increase or bonus should be awarded.

Constructively addresses minor impediments before the become major obstacles. Manages with a conscience and places integrity, ethics, and trust above all else.

Page 24: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Template Foundation

Performance review templates should be dynamic, not static!

If you’re not upgrading your template every few years, you’re missing the point of the exercise.

A typical organizational lifecycle includes the major stages of Startup, Growth, Maturity, and Decline. Your appraisal template should match your company’s current phase and then change over time to reflect your new expectations.

Performance Appraisal Wisdom

“Performance review,” in its highest form, is an enterprise-wide assessment of the entire organization’s human capital muscle, the asset that drives all operations.

Yet many senior executives view performance appraisals as one-off assessments of individual employees’ performance, missing awareness of the critical link between individual contribution and enterprise results.

43

Page 44: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Wisdom (cont.) Senior leaders should look to the annual

performance review “culmination” as a living, breathing snapshot of their organization’s human capital performance at a particular point in time.

A performance review can be used as a human capital balance sheet. At this point in time, and in light of the challenges our organization is facing, what percentage of our employees are meeting, exceeding, or falling below expectations? 

Page 45: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Wisdom (cont.)

Performance review metrics are a measure of the company’s assessment of its workforce muscle or “human capital asset”.

A strong performance management system will not only reflect your organization’s past performance—it will drive future change within your company by setting your strategic direction.

Your template holds the key to articulating and driving your organizational goals and values!

45

Page 46: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Wisdom (cont.)

Companies will best be served by a living, breathing, changing human capital performance management and measurement system—not a static form or immutable program that denies the realities of change over time.

46

Page 47: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Wisdom (cont.)

You’re the architect and designer for your company’s performance measurement system.

You create the descriptors that will drive heightened performance.

Ratcheting up expectations isn’t just a quantitative exercise: It’s also spelled out qualitatively in the language you use to define what’s acceptable vs. what what’s exceptional. 47

Page 48: PIHRA Woodland Hills presents . . .

Wisdom (cont.)

Performance management, it turns out—far from being a burden and onus on managers and staffers alike—may just be one of the “low-hanging fruits” that could catapult your career as an effective leader and marshal of human resources in their truest sense.
