*A "Manager" is defined as a manager with at least one subordinate, but the definition also includes others who might conduct Topgrading Interviews -- recruiters, HR, and individual contributors (who might be tandem partners with hiring managers).

Of all the changes I've made to improve our company, none has been more important than Topgrading. Topgrading (the book) is the most valuable business book I've read. I'd recommend it for every executive, in every company, every year!
