BACKGROUND
The numerical score from the measurement of employees potential and performance is currently used for
making decisions on the extent whether employees are most valuable for future leadership role, hence,
allocation of financial resources for leadership development programs are being budgeted accordingly.
However, at present, there is no current research on the reliability and validity of the nine box
performance and potential matrix as a measurement tool for future leaders, further, no analysis has been
made of its effectiveness in identifying potential leaders.

BACKGROUND
Issues revolving on using performance and potential scores as input to identify potential leaders were
perceived questionable based on the following:
Performance
1. Individual performance scores are highly subjective. Research consistently revealed that individual
performance scores shown to be more closely related to the relationship between employee and line
manager.
2. Majority of individual performance scores are average or placed in the middle performance error called
central tendency
3. Research also revealed that past performance score is not a reliable predictor of future performance in
a senior, different and more complex leadership role.

BACKGROUND
Issues revolving on using performance and potential scores as input to identify potential leaders were
perceived questionable based on the following:
Potential
1. Potential has different meaning to different organizations. It is a high-level concept and there is no
commonly accepted definition. The attributes an employee must have to succeed in a more complex and
senior role are not reliably addressed.
2. Potential scores are highly subjective.
3. Is the concept of potential a generic one, common to all roles, or whether different roles and operating
environments have different criteria for success?
4. The validity of decision-making based on employees position in the nine box matrix is highly
questionable.

NEED FOR CHANGE
It is about time that organizations move on from subjectivity and take a data-driven, evidence-based
approach to talent (criteria) identification and leadership potential measurement.
