Ask a group of employees how many of them would rate their performance and skills in the 90th percentile or more. Even though statisticians will tell you that only ten percent people should see themselves in the top performer category, yet whenever I have done this exercise with groups of executives, the overwhelming majority rates itself at the top. Now imagine the plight of the manager who has to appraise the performance of such a group of employees and you know that such a conversation is not going to be easy.
