TEMPLATE DESCRIPTION
It is crucial to understand the capabilities and development areas of the most important assets of an organization: its people! Once the potential and the performance of an employee are clearly determined, the talent managers can make more effective talent mapping. By using the 9 Box Grid Talent Management Excel spreadsheet template, you can evaluate the performance and potential of employees and classify team members under nine categories accordingly.
9 Box Grid Talent Management Template Features:
The template has three main sections. You should start defining the settings and then input the data table with the employee information. When you fill these sections, the chart will be created automatically on the dashboard section.
Settings:
The settings area is mainly for specifying the necessary information before starting performance evaluation. You can define job-related information such as departments, positions, and titles or job levels. In terms of employee-specific information, you may define the years of experience and age ranges. Besides that, there are additional settings for 9 box categories and evaluation levels.
This section allows you to readjust each piece of information. You can customize all the labels inside the 9 box grid categories such as category names, evaluation levels and, the respective values for performance/potential.
Once your settings are ready, you can continue with the data input sheet to evaluate employee performance.
Data Input:
First, start with entering the following employee information: name and surname, department, position, years of experience, job level, and age. After that, you can continue to input the necessary information to create the 9 Box Grid Talent Management chart. Each employee will be positioned on the chart according to the number selected in the performance and potential columns.
Please do not try to manually modify the grey-colored “9 Box Categorization” column at the right end. This column will be filled automatically based on the values you select for the performance and potential columns. If you want to define another name for a category please do so in the settings sheet.
After defining all your settings and filling out the data table with your employees, you will see the results in the charts on the dashboard.
Dashboard:
Now, your chart is available in the dashboard, based on your data input and settings. You can see the total number of employees and their percentage representation in each category. In addition, the chart is also dynamic. You can click on each category to see the list of all employees included under this particular classification.
Last but not the least, you can use the filtering options on top of the dashboard section to filter your chart based on employee ID, department, position, job level years of experience, and age.

Hi Charley,
You can remove the logo or replace it with your own logo for each sheet. For Free Versions, you are not allowed to remove the logo or alter any copyrighted material in the template.
You can do it in the full version. Please check how to do that in this link.
Candida F –
It looks that the cells in the 9 box can only hold a maximum of 10 names. Is it something I could change, or is it the way it’s supposed to be?
Someka –
Hi Candida,
This template actually allows up to 500 employees.
The setting part is where you only input the Department/Position/Job Title categories. These will work on the dropdown lists on the Employee Data Table.
The limit for these categories may also augment to 30 from 10 with the plus (+) sign on the left side.
On the Employee Table, you can input up to 500 employees.
Hope this helps!

Hi team how many people can I fit in to each box?
Someka –
Hello Rozanne,
After purchasing a paid version, we’ll send you a password to unlock your sheets.
When your sheet is unprotected, the plus (+) signs on the left side will become active:
In this way you’ll be able to increase the row number in each box upto 50:
Hope this helps!
