9 Box Talent Matrix
9 box is driven by a manager's response to the potential and performance question.
The 9 Box Matrix visualises employee performance against potential.
To enable this:
Include Performance and Potential questions in your manager template
Ensure these questions are answered by the manager during the review
The matrix then categorises employees into segments such as:
High potential
Solid performer
Risk
Star
This helps with talent planning and succession decisions.
Performance Overview
The Performance Overview chart shows the distribution of performance ratings across your organisation.
This relies on:
A configured Performance question
Responses provided during reviews
You can quickly see how many employees:
Are below expectations
Meet expectations
Exceed expectations
Responses Heat map
The Responses Heat map shows aggregated responses across review questions.
Works with any Likert scale question
Displays average scores and response counts
Compares Self vs Manager responses
We recommend using Likert scale questions wherever possible to maximise insight value.
This helps you:
Identify trends in feedback
Spot alignment (or gaps) between employees and managers
Highlight areas needing attention
Key Considerations
Insights are only available after reviews have responses
The quality of insights depends on how your templates are configured
Use structured question types (like Likert scales) for better reporting
Performance and Potential questions must be set before launching the cycle
