### The 9-Box Versus the 4-Box

The 9-Box is a commonly used tool to measure PERFORMANCE & POTENTIAL.  If you're wondering about the difference between the 4 and 9-box read on:

The 9-Box measures PERFORMANCE and POTENTIAL

The 4-Box (The Employee Performance Continuum) measures just PERFORMANCE.  
Performance is broken into two components:  WORK RESULTS & BEHAVIOR.

Ask yourself what you are trying to achieve.  If your goal is understanding and measuring employee performance then use the Employee Performance Continuum.
