Identifying High Potential Employees: Beyond the Bell Curve Method in Performance Management

Dear All,

Please tell me what the various ways of identifying High Potential Employees through PMS are, other than the Bell Curve method. Are there any structured and objective ways followed by companies to do this?

Awaiting your response.

Yes, there is a Talent Survey through which this can be achieved. This is derived from data on well-performed employees, also considering their previous ratings. This evaluation is purely based on the feedback from their bosses and a forum on certain attributes.

Hi, Faye!

Thanks for the reply. :) Could you please shed some light on the process of Talent Survey, i.e., the criteria used and how it is implemented? If you have a sample format, could you please forward it to ushusnair@gmail.com?

Once again, thanks.

Hi,

If this talent survey program is solely based on feedback collected from bosses, what measures does this program have in place to prevent bias in the feedback?

I would like to learn more about this program as the information mentioned above would be beneficial for my organization.
