Problems

  • Customers lacked accessible 15Five performance data in their calibration sessions 
  • Customers did not know how to run Calibration sessions 
  • Customers wanted to track career data in a single place and track progress over time
  • Prospective customers were going to competitors because we did not have a Calibrations feature

 

Why Customers Run Calibration Sessions
“a manager thinks that their person is a top five percent performer... But when we talk to the larger group of leadership... issues that they're manager may not have been aware of come up...” 

- Abby, HR Specialist 

Goals

  1. Improve the review cycle UX 
  2. Enable a larger sales funnel
  3. Enable calibrations directly in 15Five
  4. Reduce manager bias 

  5. Align teams on promotion and compensation decisions 

 

Designs
Our MVP allows managers and HR admins to create flexible sessions by user groups, update manager assessments in a grid, evaluate a team distribution as updates are made, document changes in an activity feed, and view calibrated reviews before sharing reviews.
