| In this highly practical book, performance management expert Dick Grote demonstrates that forced ranking can be the antidote to the common problems of inflated ratings and flawed appraisal processes that many organizations encounter. While forced ranking has been the focus of debate and conflict, Grote dispels common misperceptions about the process and offers a clear-headed, convincing argument as to why forced ranking is a critical part of any robust performance appraisal system. |
Based on extensive research and thirty years of consulting with many of America’s best-managed organizations, Grote explains how to create a forced-ranking system that is fair, evenhanded, and effective. Readers will learn how to:
- Determine how forced ranking can work within their organization’s culture
- Make the right policy and procedure decisions
- Communicate the process clearly to everyone involved
- Discuss ranking results frankly with A, B, and C players
- Ensure the legal defensibility of the system
