Performance Review Calibration Guide

Design a calibration session for {{review_cycle}} covering {{num_employees}} employees across {{departments}}.

Rating scale: {{rating_scale}}
Target distribution: {{target_distribution}}
Prior year ratings: {{prior_ratings}}

Create a facilitation agenda: overview of rating scale and competencies, individual manager presentations of high/low performers, calibration discussion (consistency, fairness, business impact), and group consensus on boundary cases. Provide anchor examples for each rating level tied to competencies. Address common biases (halo effect, recency bias). Document final ratings and address appeals process. Include post-calibration debrief for feedback to managers on rating population.
