Why quarterly
A quarterly cadence ensures:- Fast recognition of strong performance
- Fast correction of underperformance
- Credible, consistent outcomes—not a once-a-year surprise
The three steps
How it connects
- Philosophy → We are A-player centric; we want performance to have real consequences. The process is how we operationalise that.
- Framework → Scorecards, Talent Bar, and Performance Grades are the inputs and outputs of each cycle.
- Process → Quarterly Cycle defines the timeline; Calibration ensures consistency; Roles and ownership define who does what; Outcomes are what change as a result.
