9 box grid view

When configured, WX enables you to display talent plans as 9 box grids for complete teams so you can get an overall view of the talent plan ratings at a glance and take action to update or add talent plans in one place:

The 9 box grid view displays the performance against potential grid for your team, with each member displayed in the box for their rating.

To switch between Talent Plan Org Chart view and 9 Box Grid view use the toggle:

From the 9 box grid you can: 

  • select a Team Member and view their talent plan, edit it, or create a new talent plan for them

  • drill down to the team of one of your direct reports, and view the talent plan classifications for the team members

To view a team reporting to one of your direct reports, select the direct report:

Use the picklist to drill down to show teams within teams.

The display is responsive, so boxes may not always be big enough to hold all Team Members. In those cases, select the total number indicator at bottom right of the box:
