Hi Saurav,
Bell curve is nothing but a Normal distribution curve. In a big company where number of associates are more, HR try to fit the rating of associates in normal distribution.
The steps for the same are as below
1. Prepare a merit list of all associates as per their performances.
2. Give them rating of Excellent to below average as per enclosed sheet.

I take this opportunity to request bloggers to first SEARCH CiteHr before posting their query. For example, the boxes at the right side of this message show that there have been 5 threads on Bell Curve already.

You are right Simhan.
But coming to think of it, we live in a world of instant-gratification where most people want instant answers--without even taking some time off to check things up--doesn't matter if that's at others' cost, in terms of lost time & effort to answer queries that were already answered many times earlier.
And this trend seems to be on the rise @ CiteHR of late.
I wish Moderators & Super Moderators like you devise a way to handle this aspect even while someone is in the Posting-process, instead of responding AFTER the Posting--saves time for everyone. When self-control/self-discipline doesn't make sense, a dose of restriction may be necessary.

- PPT has explained the Bell Curve very well. Thanks a lot.
- Since curve is shaped like a bell, it is called bell curve.
- Though it is called a normal distribution, often it has to be forced, especially when salary increments and rewards are directly linked to individual performance ratings. Bosses often tend to rate everyone as good or outstanding.
- Forced distribution helps in really identifying outstanding or excellent performers from mere good performers and also to identify poor performers.
- Most often unless forced to follow the bell curve, there will be hardly any poor performers and all employees will be rated as Excellent or Good. In such a situation Management has to pose question to HODs and Appraisers that, if all are performing Good or Excellent then company and it's each department must be achieving all it's targets and goals, which is often not a case.
