Diamonds in the Rough


 Grooming internal talent for senior positions is a surprisingly improvised hit-or-miss proposition at many companies, relying on instinct and biased judgments. A more effective alternative, the Group Evaluation Method, uses a structured and iterative discussion process to assess an individual’s potential for leadership roles and predict which areas need development in order to ensure the candidate’s progress. The nature of group participation means that colleagues have a vested interest in seeing the plan succeed.
