High Potential Identification: Beyond Performance Ratings
High performance does not equal high potential. PPI's Hogan-based HiPo identification programs surface the personality characteristics that predict sustained leadership effectiveness — not just current results.
The problem with current HiPo programs
Most high potential programs rely primarily on performance ratings and manager nominations — both of which are heavily influenced by bias, visibility, and political capital rather than actual leadership potential.
Research consistently shows that the personality characteristics that predict long-term leadership effectiveness are largely invisible in performance reviews. PPI's approach brings validated personality data into the HiPo identification process.
