Behavioural anchors
| Level | Behaviour at this level |
|---|---|
| N1 Guided | Fills an existing dashboard or report template with current figures and checks the display for errors. works under supervision and follows instruction · routine, one variable at a time · own task |
| N3 Proficient | Designs a dashboard together with the user, chooses indicators and definitions and processes user feedback into new versions. sets own approach and seeks input proactively · several variables, some ambiguity · own team or process |
| N5 Leading | Determines which management information the organisation uses and keeps definitions unambiguous across all reporting. 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.
