Observatorio Gestión de Personas organiza Seminario con Profesora Giverny de Boeck

El Profesor Pedro Leiva, Director del Observatorio de Gestión de Personas del Departamento de Administración y Negocios de la Facultad de Economía y Negocios de la Universidad de Chile, organizo el seminario académico denominado “Future-oriented and Ambiguous: Examining potential assessments versus performance assessments” que fue dictado por PhD. Giverny de Boeck.

A continuación, se comparte un resumen de las principales ideas del Seminario realizado sobre su trabajo por la Académica Giverny de Boeck:

“This paper shows that two fundamental qualities differentiate potential assessments from performance assessments: Future-orientation and ambiguity. After experimentally evidencing that potential assessments are inherently more future-oriented and ambiguous than performance assessments, we develop a theoretical model on the antecedents and the consequences of potential relative to performance assessments. Using two sets of archival data from a German chemical multinational and a Belgian financial institution, we show that age and gender stereotypes have a stronger impact on potential assessments than on performance assessments. Moreover, we also show that, whereas performance assessments have a stronger impact on pay raises, potential assessments have a stronger effect on promotions. Implications of these findings are discussed for theory and practice with a particular focus on talent management and age discrimination.”.
