People & Talent

Do you have the right people, set up to succeed?

Summary

People & Talent measures whether your team has the skills to do the work and the motivation to do it well. Skills without engagement gives you quiet resignations; engagement without skills gives you enthusiastic mistakes.

Why it matters

Every other scorecard category depends on people. A weak People & Talent rating puts a ceiling on the other eight.

Focus areas in this category

The 5 levels in this category

  1. L1 Foundation

    Position descriptions exist; hires have a defined 90-day plan.

  2. L2 Structure

    A skills matrix tracks who can do what. Onboarding is structured, not improvised.

  3. L3 Performance

    Engagement is measured regularly; 1-on-1s are consistent and acted on.

  4. L4 Excellence

    Internal promotions are the default, not the exception. Retention is visibly better than the industry.

  5. L5 Mastery

    Your company becomes the place people in the industry want to work. Recruiting is easy because the brand sells itself.
