Multiple raters around the person rate behaviour against behavioural anchors.
This is a selection criterion, not a short-term development goal. Do not put a three-month development plan on it.
Behavioural anchors
| Level | Behaviour at this level |
|---|---|
| N1 Guided | Reports an own mistake to the supervisor and asks which repair step should be taken first. works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task |
| N3 Proficient | Repairs mistakes in own process unprompted, informs stakeholders and adjusts the working method to prevent a repeat. sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process |
| N5 Leading | Takes public responsibility for outcomes across the chain and organises that mistakes are used organisation wide to improve. sets the standard and the policy · strategic, under high uncertainty · organisation, value chain or profession |
N2 and N4 are deliberately not anchored. Raters place them between the anchors, following the O*NET convention.
