    role: 'Senior Engineer',
    department: 'Engineering',
    manager: 'MGR-67890'
  },
  sections: [
    {
      type: 'goal-achievement',
      weight: 40,
      goals: ['Q1-OKR-001', 'Q2-OKR-002', 'Q3-OKR-003', 'Q4-OKR-004']
    },
    {
      type: 'competency-assessment',
      weight: 40,
      competencies: ['Technical Excellence', 'Collaboration', 'Innovation', 'Leadership']

    {
      type: 'values-alignment',
      weight: 20,
      values: ['Customer Focus', 'Integrity', 'Growth Mindset']
    }
  ],
  ratingScale: {
    type: '5-point',
    labels: ['Needs Improvement', 'Developing', 'Meets Expectations', 'Exceeds', 'Exceptional']
  }
};

Calibration Session Setup

const calibrationConfig = {
  session: 'Engineering Calibration Q4-2026',
  managers: ['MGR-001', 'MGR-002', 'MGR-003'],
  employees: ['EMP-list'],
  guidelines: {
    distribution: 'recommended',
    targetDistribution: {
      exceptional: 10,
      exceeds: 20,
      meets: 55,
      developing: 10,
      needsImprovement: 5
    }
  },
  discussionFormat: {
    orderBy: 'rating-then-tenure',
    timePerEmployee: 5,
    focusAreas: ['rating-changes', 'promotion-ready', 'development-needed']
  }
};

Process Integration

This skill integrates with the following HR processes:

Process	Integration Points
performance-review-cycle.js	Full review workflow
360-degree-feedback.js	Multi-rater integration
performance-improvement-plan.js	Low performer identification

Best Practices

Clear Criteria: Define performance standards before the cycle
Ongoing Feedback: Reviews should summarize, not surprise
Evidence-Based: Require examples to support ratings
Calibration: Always calibrate before finalizing ratings
Development Focus: Balance evaluation with growth planning
Timeliness: Complete reviews within defined windows

Metrics and KPIs

Metric	Description	Target
Completion Rate	Reviews completed on time	>95%
Distribution Health	Alignment with guidelines	Within 5%
Feedback Quality	Narrative word count and specificity	>200 words
Employee Satisfaction	Survey of process fairness	>70%
Development Planning	Employees with IDPs	100%
