Multiple exercises, multiple assessors, dimension-wise scoring.

This is a selection criterion, not a short-term development goal. Do not put a three-month development plan on it.

Behavioural anchors

LevelBehaviour at this level
N1 Guided Puts forward an own idea for better or new work in the team meeting and asks for a response.
works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task
N3 Proficient Sets up an own initiative with goal, planning and budget and keeps it running until the result is visible.
sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process
N5 Leading Sets up new activities or ventures for the organisation and carries the responsibility for investment and result.
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.
