The second day of the HR Summit and Expo 2014 brought the presentation “Improving the Odds of Success of Your High-Potential Programmes”, held by Eugene Burke, Chief Science & Analytics Officer at CEB.
The presentation was focused on describing High-Potential Organizations and on providing some pieces of advice for organizations in regards to employee management.
Firstly, Eugene Burke differentiated between high performance and employees with a high potential, mentioning that only 15% of high performance are high-potential. In order for an employee to be called “high-potential”, three elements are needed: Aspiration, Ability and Engagement.

- Level of activity;
- Power;
