Pointers

• The evaluation should foster desired performance as well as accurately measure job performance.

• The evaluation should be integrated fully within the organization’s entire human capital management system.

• Forced ranking systems invariably add an internal competition dynamic to an organizational culture. Competition and individual performance are highest when a group of individuals knows that they will all be ranked.

• As human capital metrics become more prevalent, it will be easier to compare current and prospective employees. Then organizations will compete to recruit the best performers in any field.
