¿Qué es Nine-Box Grid? | Glosario de RR. HH. | BambooHR
A talent tool plotting employees by current performance against future potential.
The nine-box grid is a talent-management framework that places each employee into one of nine cells based on two axes: current performance and future potential. It gives leaders a shared, visual language for calibrating talent across a team or organisation.
The grid supports succession planning by highlighting high-potential individuals who may be ready for stretch roles, as well as steady contributors and those who may need support. It is most useful as a prompt for discussion during talent reviews rather than a mechanical scoring exercise.
Used carelessly, it risks labelling people or embedding bias, so ratings should be calibrated across managers and revisited regularly. Pairing the grid with concrete development actions keeps it honest and useful.
