The weight assigned to each of these depends on the stage someone is at in their career. At an entry level, it is about individual performance within the scope of the job role and how well the individual integrates with the rest of the team.

Leadership Tools: Evaluation Categories and Weight at Different Career Stages.

As a person's career progresses, they must maintain that foundation of competence in their job role and at being a team player. Beyond that, the following should be considered:

  • How much is an individual contributing outside their currently defined role scope?

  • How many others have been developed by this person that can do the same job functions or more?
